Rosy rat snake

[Rubix]

I'm doing volunteer work experience at a local pet store, and they have the cutest little rosy corn that's been there for awhile. (the father was listed as an albino rosy corn, and the mother as a rosy corn, I'm assuming the little guy is also a rosy corn as well, though it doesn't actually say... correct me if I'm wrong) Now, I haven't been too interested in getting another hatchling, as my other two snakes are still quite small themselves, buuuut I have to say, this guy has the most charming personality :D I don't know what it is about being attacked by a tiny little snake who thinks he's the scariest thing alive, but you know... :p

Anyways, getting to the point...

Does anyone here have pictures of adult rosy rats they could post? They don't seem too plentiful on the net, and I've searched around the forums, but most of the older pics don't work anymore :(

Thanks in advance!

A rosy rat is another name for corn snake. I would think that finding a picture of a corn snake on the internet can't be all that hard. In fact, I would think that it would be harder to not find a picture, LOL!

Lol, aka Upper Keys Corn, right? From what I've read it's just a wild type corn snake, grows to be a bit smaller than average and for awhile was thought of as a subspecies of the corn snake... ("The Rosy rat snake comes from the Florida Keys. They tend to be smaller than most corn snakes and the black coloration is greatly reduced on both the dorsal and ventral surfaces. Once a sub species Elaphe guttata rosacea it is now classified as Elaphe guttata guttata.")

Most of the pics that I've found don't differentiate between the different types of wild corns, and the wild types seem to be becoming obsolete next to the fancier types people are coming up with every day... I was just curious to see how they compare to the average "normal", if they do at all :p Humor me

upper keys corns are actually a recognized subspecies, pantherophis guttata rosacea

however, if your snake has an albino parent, it is most likely not pure upper keys
