#112112

GENDER PAIR of siblings from crossing a Kastanie mutant with a Java ?mutant?

Male and Female

d.o.h. 2011

24″+ long on October 17, 2012

$450.00 shipped

Comments: Prospect of new morph as a result of this genetic pairing.

This gender pair of 2011 siblings are now eating frozen/thawed fuzzy mice.  What is Java?  Is it a Kastanie, a separate (and new) mutation, or just a polygenic production that’s similar to Kastanies?  IF Java is actually Kastanie, these are pure Kastanie mutants.  If Java is something new, these babies are double hets, and if Java is just a polytenic color modifier, these are beautiful corns that are het for Kastanie??

What are Java and Kastanie corns?

KASTANIE
The first Kastanie to be discovered was by a German Corn Snake Breeder and teacher named Frank Schaub.  The English translation of Kastanie is Chestnut.  That was before the year 2000.  Since that discovery, the Kastanie mutation has been bred into many other color and pattern mutations to produce beautifully-colored corn snakes.  The mutation is recessive to wild type.  Generally, they are anything from mahogany to mocha colored with contrasting markings against ground color zones.  As they mature, they usually darken, but the color scheme seen in most non-albino corns (the first 1/4 to 1/3 of the body having more color-saturated colors) is pronounced in Kastanies.
Example of small adult:

JAVA
The first Javas were produced and named by a corn snake breeder in South Africa.  We purchased several of the Java corns from him, but neither he or anyone else at this time can identifiy the inheritance (are they polygenetic productions, a new mutation, or a variant of an existing mutation?). Some believe that their likeness to some of the Kastanies points to the potential that Java and Kastanie are the same mutation, but more breeding trials are necessary to make that determination.

Our Java types come in many shades of brown, not unlike the Kastanies.  The albino version of Javas (aka: Tangerines) look virtually identical to the albino version of the Kastanies (aka: Mandarins), so it is possible they are the same mutation, but again, more trials are indicated.

Comments: Superior color and size maturity.

The result of breeding an Ultramel Het Charcoal and Anery to a Blizzard het Anery.  Breeding this snake to a Snow corn will result in reproduction of Snows, Ultramel Aneries, and Amels.  Perhaps also Blizzards and/or Charcoals.

 

The U.S. Dollar bill in the picture is for size and color comparison.  Every computer monitor renders different colors so we put this slightly used dollar bill in the picture so you can hold one next to your computer to assess the color of the snake.

This snake is in good health (not under or over-weight, no parasites or diseases that we are aware, no injuries or defects, and routinely feeding on unaltered frozen/thawed mice).

If we have noticed that the snake listed has any temperament or behavioral issues other than human-friendly, it will be detailed in Comments above.

Comon corn Het Caramel PLUS
Male
d.o.h. 2010
42″ long on Nov. 9, 2012
Eating frozen/thawed adult mice
$125.00 shipped

This 2010 male common corn is largely unidentified.  I recall that he is het for Caramel but because his ID label was lost in brumation last year, I don’t recall exactly what other mutations he possesses. It is inconceiveable even to me that I would keep a male common corn that was only het for Caramel, so this one is surely het for other mutations.  Were I to guess, I’d say he’s probably at least for Stripe and Bloodred and I recall breeding Pied-sided Bloodred to Butter about the time this one hatched.  Obviously, the shipped price of this one ($125.00) demonstrates my concern for not over-pricing a snake when its genetics are in question.  With shipping for a snake this size costing at least $57.00, he bears the price of a Common Corn Snake.
