Show & Tell
I would LOVE to tell you that this is one of our selectively-bred Okeetees, but we cheated. One of the parents of this beautiful snake was a Tessera, and as many of you are learning, for some reason the Tessera mutation has amazing impacts on even the non-Tessera siblings of Tesseras. We don’t know why this is happening (for the first time in corn snake herpetoculture) but it’s the norm much more than the exception.

YesterDAY (June 23, 2015) we welcomed these three new mutant compounds at South Mountain. Note: ALL Scaleless corns in the world toDAY are descendants of the first Scaleless “Corn”, parents of which were a Cornsnake and an Emory’s Ratsnake. Therefore, ALL Scaleless Corns at this time are inter-species hybrids. s

Pipping on June 24th, 2015, these Leucistic Black Rats have been highly anticipated. After losing a primary male in this project four years ago, we’re finally up and “walking” again. We hope to have this project “running again” next year, but there are precious few of these to sell this year. Three or more years of deposits, prepayments, and reservations for them, these were dibbied long before hatching this week. Hopefully, next year we’ll have enough to supply demand? Yes, after this photograph I slit the shell on the one that was “sleeping in”.

This Anery Palmetto has an unusually low volume of pigment flecking. Originally identified as a Charcoal Palmetto, her eyes now indicate that she is an Anery A Palmetto double-mutant. Her irises were much darker as a neonate. That “unnatural” pose was the result of the snake arching up to touch the ceiling of a bowl that covered her just before shooting this pic.

Another example of a mature Striped Sunrise Amel. A latent feature of the Sunrise mutation that is obvious in this Striped Sunrise Amel is the depigmentation of dorsal stripe zones that resembles scars form on Amel corns.
