Siblings of this 18″ female 2017 corn snake included Blizzards AND Snows, so this one COULD be a Blizzard Snow, but I’m pricing her as a Blizzard.  She is currently eating frozen/thawed medium pinky mice.  Her $125.00 price includes      S O L D

Don’t let this odd ball slip through your fingers.  This 2017 female hatchling Snow corn snake is currently 17″ long, eating frozen/thawed medium pinky mice.  In 2017 I bred my best eXtreme Reverse Okeetee to an eXtreme Reverse Okeetee that I’d never used before, and one of the eggs had this female Snow in it.  Why does she look this way?  How will she look at maturity?  I don’t know, but she shows great color promise.  Keep in mind that under this odd SNOW  facade, she’s still an eXtreme Reverse Okeetee, so she would be a good breeder for that and for trying to make more like her via using a Snow or an Reverse Okeetee het for Anery?  Her $165.00 price includes

Some of you will recall the SOTD feature on April 7, 2018, showing a sub-adult Variable Kingsnake (Lampropeltis thayeri) that had been hiding in the main snake building for several months.  He/she was recovered in April via getting hopelessly stuck to a Masking Tape Trap I had set for another loose snake (see PIC 2 toDAY).  A few scales were pulled off in the tape removal process, but I can’t even find those places now, after a couple of sheds.  . . .

Though this individual has never been featured on my web site or SMR FaceBook page, some of you are surely saying, “looks like the others you’ve shown, Don”.  While generally true that they share a basically consistent phenotype, they all seem to have different shades of color striping.  This Striped mutant Trans-pecos Ratsnake (Bogertophis subocularius) is the homozygous form of the Striped gene mutation in this species.  So far, all of them have utterly contiguous striping from neck to tail tip.
