However I was talking with someone at the local PS and they said that they would be albinos and that is the way they sold them. It caused me some confusion. Also, If one baby comes out looking like a creamsicle does that mean that the mother was a carrier and perhaps a creamsicle also possibly in a smaller percentage? I love creamsicles so I want to be sure I understand what I am seeing here.

I am not sure you are understanding what a creamsicle is.
90% of the time it is
albino cornsnake bred to emory ratsnake = normal hybrids "rootbeers" het for albino "creamsicle"
these normal offspring het for albino "called rootbeers" are then bred to produce albino offspring "called creamsicle"
creamsicle is not a separate morph its just an albino hybrid of those 2 snakes
it can also be done with normal cornsnake and albino emory but would still be called a creamsicle
hybrid cornsnakeXemory = rootbeer if normal colored
hybrid cornsnakeXemory = creamsicle if amelanistic
hybrid cornsnakeXemory = cinnamon if hypo
the reason why most of yours look more albinoish is because they are 75% albino cornsnake and only 25% emory
the orange comes from the emory
