Smile A few Corns for ya'll...

Here's a quick snap-shot of my Love-Line Okeetee male. I can't wait to see what he looks like as he matures. Okeetes are by far my favorite corn variety...



Here's a female anery I produced by accident last year. She's currently pounding back adult mice!



A normal male and sibling to the above anery. He was a 2nd clutch runt but he's pounding back the adult mice like they are going out of style!



Thanks for looking! :sun:

Thanks guys!

Andy, the normal's mom was sold to me as an Okeetee but since the father wasn't one, I just called the babies normals. The hatchlings I've been able to keep tabs on all have nice dark rings and some pretty nice coloration.

Yeah I kind of figured it was a case like that, more people should sell/classify snakes by their genetics and not by their looks, and that is a perfect example of presenting things as they really are.

I would say that last one should be called an okeetee as well, due to its thick black borders. Okeetee is actually referring to the thick borders, not just the coloration.

Beautiful snakes!

It refers to the genetics of the snake and the locality of where it was from, not necessarily just black borders. I was trying to say that im glad he labelled it normal rather than okeetee because it is not pure okeetee.

Great looking corns - love the anery - doesn't seem to be showing much yellow yet and very nice contrast. Thanks for sharing photos - especially nice to see how the youngsters are progressing from last year,
