Hmmm... what's your favorite color?! They are pretty variable.

Check http://www.extremesnakes.com/index.html to see some great pics of the different morphs.

I don't see how you could go wrong with a nicely colored normal corn. Look for all the colors you want and go with that. The amount of $$ you spend will not always be relative to just how nice a snake you can get.
For instance, this little guy would go for less than $20.USD as a hatchling and look how nice he turned out.

I'd have to agree with Mark
Normals can be great looking too

Heck to me, all corn snakes are beauties!!
So just choose the 'color' that you like best with the corn and go with that.
I like most colors....so I have most of the 'morphs' with the corns.....LOL!!!

just so that you know, creamsicles are not corns, they are a hybrid between the corn and the great plains ratsnake (usually). i have seen some animals labled as creamsicles that are hybrids between the corn and other closely related ratsnake species, but they are all hybrids. for pics of various different morphs as babies and adults, try this site http://cornsnakemorphs.com/

my personal favorite morph is a ghost, especially ruby-eyed, tho ive never owned one.

Go for blood red!!!
I got a blood red and he is gorgeous and he is only 2-3 months with beautiful markings and they say the colours get better as they get bigger.
