This 2014 female Terrazzo corn is now 30″ long, eating frozen/thawed fuzzy mice.

This Scaleless Hypo A & Sunkissed corn demonstrates the typically random and sparse exhibition of scales that are small, irregular, and atypical compared to the classic scales of scaled snakes. What you are seeing in this snake is the color and pattern that lies below the upper epidermal SCALE layer of a corn snake.   Fortunately, many of the scale aggregations are in fundamental body locations.  In most Scaleless Corns all/most of their ventrum (belly) is covered with virtually normal ventral scales.  Likewise, many Scaleless Corns have fringe scale placement at the edges of their mouth.  ALL Scaleless corns in the hobby toDAY (including scaled corns that are carriers of the Scale-less mutation) are descendants of the original pairing of a Corn Snake to an Emory’s Ratsnake (aka: Great Plains Ratsnake) and are therefore technically inter-species hybrids.  Bonus pic

What you are seeing in this snake is what lies below the upper epidermal SCALE layer of a corn snake.

Nothing particularly special to see, this Amel is het for Scaleless, Striped, and Butter.  We should have Scaleless versions of Striped Butters this summer.  Fingers crossed.

This recently acquired Thai Red Mountain Ratsnake (Oreocryptophis porphyraceus coxi) is a typical representative of its species.  Thank you, Cindy, for this amazing snake.  He has the most unusually inquisitive and human-tolerant demeanor.  I’m having a ball just handling him.   Bonus pic
