Soooo, in case you’re slow to pick up on this, I LOVE High-white Albino corns.  After toDAY, I’ll give this morph a rest, so you don’t get tired of seeing them.  Here’s a sub-2-year-old High-white Tessera with a 2017 hatchling (aka: Candy Cane Tesseras).  Enjoy.

It’s rare when I make Amel corns that are siblings of Cayenne Fires (because most of mine are from pairs of Cayenne Fires), but about half of them look like the one (lower snake in pic).  The more solidly month-old red one in this pic (Cayenne Fire–possessing both copies of the Red Factor gene mutation) will be an exceptionally red Cayenne Fire as an adult, but fom the impact of the Red-mofifying gene, the one with the whiter ground color (Amel) will also be a very heavily red adult, even though it is not a Bloodred/Diffused mutant.  For those our us who have seen many hatchling Amel corns it’s obvious that the red in the Amel is much darker than virtually all hatchling Amel corns?

From Catherine Turley breeding stock, these 2017 HELICONIA (?Red Factor SPECTER) corn snakes hatched around 06/22/17. They are variants of ??Aneries/Ghosts??, originating from Kathy Love who acquired the first (?only?) wild Naples, Florida, locality SPECTER patriarch.   Once they are reliably feeding we will set prices and publish them for sale on our web site.

This beautiful adult female Coral Ghost corn snake is showing off her first meal on June 17th, two DAYs after emergence from brumation.  She and over 90 other females will be laying eggs in a few months.  Those eggs won’t hatch until Winter, but there will be great variety among the babies at out-of-season hatchling time?  The first wave of 2017 eggs hatched over a month ago and the second wave eggs began hatching on June 16th, so there will be plenty of hatchlings added to our web site Snakes For Sale Snakes For Sale page very soon.

NOPE, this is not a CREAMSICLE.  This 22″ male 2016 Amel Buf Okeetee Corn snake (produced by Catherine Turley) is currently eating frozen/thawed small or medium pinky mice.    He is het for Motley or Stripe (maybe both) and 50% pos-het (possibly het) for Hypo. Of course, the greatest value asset of this snake–beyond Creamsicle appearance without using inter-species hybridization–is the genetic reality that what gives this snake its orange and yellow colors is the dominant-to-wild-type gene mutation, BUF.  His $245.00 price includes
