Show & Tell

This 2017 Scaleless Tessera corn snake hatched on April 28th.  After a few meals, he/she will be offered for sale.  

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.

Believe it or don’t, this 2016 24″ female corn snake is a Striped Amel.  Seeing very little striped markings and lots of what we sometimes call “tweener” blotches, if you breed her to a Striped Amel phenotype, you will get classically Striped Amels, some like this snake, and some in-between, with regard to pattern.  She  is currently eating frozen/thawed large-pinky mice.  She is a sister to yesterDAY’s Amel Motley so she is possibly het Fire and Ghost.  Her $175.00 USD price includes

Show & Tell

The gray blotch borders seen in this yearling 2016 Ultramel Okeetee corn snake used to be lavender colored when this snake first hatched.  The pupils were ruby-colored when it hatched, but are a little darker red now.  At maturity, these Ultramel Okeetees should have pupils that are nearly black, if not completely black.  Ultra and Ultramel-types are more easily distinguished from non-Ultra-types for the first weeks of their lives–via comparison of eye pupil color–but less easily distinguished as they get older.     

note:  ALL Ultra-type corns (Ultras, Ultramels, Gold Dusts, etc.) in the hobby toDAY (including siblings and ancestors that do not demonstrate the Ultra gene mutation) are descendants of the original pairing of a Corn Snake to an Gray Ratsnake and  are therefore technically inter-species hybrids.  Bonus pic
