 SHOW & TELL

2013 Anery Palmetto Corn Snake.  I didn’t expect that I’d like a monochromatic Palmetto with only shades of black, (if we can call BLACK a color ?), but I was SO wrong.  I love the way most of the dark flecks are accented with darker black margins.  And what’s up with the head plates showing a tinge of red at their edges?

There is about to be a very proud European snake keeper at Terraristika in Hamm this month when this snake (one of only two Anery Palmetto corns in the world AND the ONLY one in Europe) goes home from the expo with her.  I’m sure the European corn snake forums and reptile expos will be seeing a lot of this pretty gal as she transforms into adulthood.  Even I have never seen a fully-grown Anery Palmetto, so I’m eager to see pictures of her in a year or so.   Bonus Pic . . .

2013 Cayenne Fire produced by John Finsterwald  (ZORRO ) of ColoradoCorns.com.   He is het for Charcoal, therefore, making Cayenne (Red Mask) Whiteout (Blizzard Bloodreds) is possible in the next generation.  Way to go, John.  Stunning snake, buddy.  I’m excited to see what a Coral Whiteout looks like in the next generation?

Many have asked me to show the Fire corn (Amel Bloodred ) that I got from a South African corn snake breeder, so here he is.  He is almost as red as most of our SMR Cayenne Fires, but when bred to one of our SMR Red Mask Cayenne Fires, the reds in the babies really POP ! !     . . .

SHOW & TELL

A new friend I met at the NRBE in Daytona Beach two weeks ago (Ken) asked me to send him pictures of the parents of the corn he purchased at our booth; a Butter, Het for Scaleless Saffron Motley.  Since I sold a few others from these parents, I’ll just post the pictures here for the other customers to see also.  The (above) male Scaleless is obviously het Butter (both in appearance AND evidenced by some of the progeny from this pairing being Butters) and the Saffron Motley female (below) is not het for anything that I’m aware.
