Looks like a snow corn to me. Not 100% on that though.

Snow is a type of albino, hence the red eyes.

That's a snow corn
a combination of two albino genes.
Amel and Anery
Amel is the reduction of the black pigment
Anery is the Reduction of the Red pigment
With those two genes in place, you'll have a Snow (Reduction of both red and black pigmentation; Amel and Anery)

Hope this helped

Hey what happens if you breed a snow to a snow? Do you get snows, amels, anerys, normals or what?

Looke's to me as a Snow was breeded with a Hypomelanistic Corn, Had to say with many breeds and coulours of corns best guess for a name would be Snow corn Het for Hypo or Red Ghost Hybrid.

snow corn

Well by the pic. it looks like a snow corn and theres no way of determining its exact genetics just by its phenotype alone. We must also remember that as corns age certain colors begin to develope such as the yellows.Snow corns can have a variety of color from green blotched snows to bubblegum to xanthics.Time will tell its exact looks .Looks like a healthy little guy though best of luck.

its deffinetly a snow BUT it could be a blizzard or some kind of other type that has snow genes :P. corn morphs are getting more and more complicated every day. And yellow is normal for snows. some will get really yellow and others just small stripes. it all depends. taking from the please help thing you need to read more. u suggest you join the cornsnakes forum they have the best info there for cornsnakes and i also suggest you buy the cornsnake manual by kathy love and bill love. its the bible of cornsnake owners
