Snake of the Day 05-30-16

Show & Tell

Because the pie-bald (aka: Pied) mutation is demonstrated in so many serpent species around the world, knowing it will eventually be demonstrated in the corn snake species with white in all body zones, I named this morph Pied-sided because the white is relegated to the sides only.  This Pied-sided (aka: p/s) Bloodred will breed for her last time this year.  Now about 13 years old, she still lays large clutches of viable eggs, but I know in a couple more years that one more clutch could lead to her demise, so she is being retired to enjoy SMR mice without the necessity to make more hatchlings for us.
