Snake of the Day 01-01-19

This 21″ female 2018 Scaleless corn snake is currently eating frozen/thawed large pinky mice.

note:  ALL Scaleless corns in the hobby toDAY (including SCALED corns that are carriers of the Scale-less mutation–aka Het Scaleless) are descendants of the original pairing of a Corn Snake to an Emory’s Ratsnake (aka: Great Plains Ratsnake).  Therefore, all Scaleless corns (and their scaled siblings) are inter-species hybrids.

This beautiful Anery-type corn is the 2nd generation product of pairing two snakes I acquired in the early 2000s from Nancy Wimer (thank you, Nancy).  Nancy sent a beautiful adult Anery Motley and an adult Charcoal that I bred to get many Anery babies.  Breeding just about any two of them together yielded one like toDAY’s featured snake in each brood.  In addition to Snows, Aneries, Charcoals and potentially RedFactor mutants, there was just one each season like this one.  The pink speaks for itself (surely one of the red-modifying gene mutations?), but I also suspect that this one (and her predecessors from other seasons) is both Charcoal and Anery?  Trials should reveal what she is hiding?

If you have been waiting to see an albino corn snake for sale with lots of green, this 24″ 2017 male High-white Reverse Okeetee is about as much green as you’re likely to see?  Showing this much green at such a tender age surely means it will show much more color in the coming months?  He is currently eating frozen/thawed large pinky mice.
