Photo dramatization: 28″ Orange colored snake is toDAY’s featured Snake Of The Day. NOT the darker “dithered” 23″ snake.
Show & Tell
Years ago, I learned that the best adult eXtreme Okeetee corns (ones with best deep color and widest black blotch borders) were essentially the least colorful in the first weeks of their lives. In fact, many of the best adults I’ve had over the years looked like Anerythristic corn snakes when they hatched, except for the tell-tale brown irises of their eyes? All of these in toDAY’s pics will be exceptional eXtreme Okeetees at maturity. They will be listed for sale in the next two or three weeks, after they have demonstrated their appetite for frozen/thawed pinky mice. Bonus pic

2016 Tiger Okeetee (not for sale). This gem was produced by Catherine Turley last year. Awesome banding, Catherine! Years ago, I applied the word TIGER to Banded Okeetees with somewhat atypically shaped markings that often resembled the vertical markings on tigers, helping those cats blend into the shadows of their natural habitat. The standard for them, years ago, was to produce those with the highest number of crooked and often chaotic markings, so as to resemble their namesake feline. This one is het for Charcoal and possibly het for Amel. Our first Banded Charcoal Okeetees derived from Banded Extreme Okeetees that looked just like this one. I’m excited to work with them once again. Thanks, Catherine. BTW, is that black lateral facial band awesome, or what? Bonus Pics

A hatching Scaleless corn snake pic from last summer. Second pic is a SMR hatchling from 2015. No, this is not a Motley. Do you see the not-so-sharp egg tooth in the first pic? It’s much more rounded and “dull” than most corn snake egg teeth?
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) and are therefore technically inter-species hybrids.

No, this is not a Motley. Many (more than half) of all our Scaleless corn snakes have dorsal markings that resemble those of Motley mutants.

This beautiful 2016 Sunkissed corn snake is het for Scaleless and Anery. I can’t wait (but I WILL) to see the target result of the next generation; Scaleless Sunkissed Aneries! Bonus Pic

This 2016 female eXtreme Reverse Okeetee Tessera is 20″ long and eating frozen/thawed medium or large pinky mice. She is technically an eXtreme example of her morph, not only because she has less red than most Amel Tesseras, but also because one of her parents was an Extreme Reverse okeetee (see pic 2 — NOT FOR SALE). Her $295.00 price includes Bonus Pic

Classic “Miami-ish” phenotype in corns that are het for Cinder, this young adult female is a descendant of a Buttermint (Caramel Amel Cinder) out-cross. I would not call the lack of color in the head the so-called “Zombie head” look, as it is common for most Cinder mutants to dull colors as you see in toDAY’s SOTD. Bonus Pic

This 2016 male eXtreme Tessera (het for Amel) will have more black as an adult than most Tesseras in the hobby toDAY. He is 23″ long, eating frozen/thawed medium or large pinky mice. His $265.00 price includes

This 2015 male Granite Gray-banded Kingsnake (Lampropeltis alterna) is not for sale, but I wanted to share this update on his color progression. He looks remarkably like his father, in having so much orange in such aberrant pattern. We’re not yet sure why this one (and his father) have such exaggeration of color and markings, but future breeding trials may reveal the inheritance of this look? As I have cited before, this is from Mike’s amazing line of Granite gray-bands, but unlike most male Granite GBs, this one–and his father–have much much more color and pattern.

This is one of the 2016 F2s from Nancy Wimer’s pairing of an Anery Motley x Charcoal. I’m presuming it’s a Charcoal Anery, but until one like this is bred to a Charcoal, it’s only a theory? Bonus pics
