Meet Khuno

[Snakefood]

I've already posted these pics when he came home, but I can't get more now and we finally have a name to introduce him by.

Khuno (Columbian god of snowstorms)

Khuno is so awesome!! I don't have enough experience to say whether the transfer stressed him or not, but it doesn't seem so. I put his little tub he's been raised in right into the viv with the top skewed open. It took him less than 5 seconds to stick his head out and he was off, exploring the viv, climbing in the plants to see how high up he could get!! He's checked out the entire perimeter of the viv, checked out all the hides, went into the water dish and climbed the ivy. By this morning when I looked, he has found his best hidey, and I have no idea where he is, although I know he's in the tank as it has a locking top!!:crazy2:

Khuno is an Incan deity mostly held by Andeans of Peru. Colombia only touches the tip of the Andes.
Cool little snake though, excuse my ignorance, is that a Corn Snake? I can't tell most Colubrae apart from one another.

thank you, the site Iw as on mentioned the andes mountains, which span like 5 countries!! but it did say columbian, so that's what I thought it was. So Peruvian, cool!

Yes he is a 2 month old male Blizzard Corn.

That's a nice snake.
Corn snakes have 2 be my favourite snakes mainly because of the many different morphs.

Thanks all, I think he's pretty cool too!!

I know!! the breeder I dealt with had so many different morphs, it took us forever to pick which we wanted!!!

Nice....I love the blizzards.......my husband just brought home a snow corn for my daughter today.....I posted pics in another thread!

[Snakefood]

I saw him, he's beautiful!! I almost chose a snow corn, but this little blizzard just charmed me!!

On another note, I may end up with another corn, one of the ads I responded to before choosing my Khuno has gotten back to me and offered her 2 yr old corn to me for $50, enclosure and all!! I asked why the panic and seems she is moving next weekend and is not allowed to take the snake. She say if she can't sell her in the next week that she would like us to take her. And I can't imagine what would happen to the snake if no-one buys her before they move!!

So we'll see, the house may be a 2 snake house from next weekend on!!

[ladyjustice33]

That's great!!! What morph is the 2 yr old corn?

[Snakefood]

She is an Okeetee. aprox 2' long. Any idea's on what size prey she's gonna be eating. Lucky for me the woman selling her already has her on F/T.

I can't believe that no-one has grabbed her up, the pic the lady sent shows very striking color/pattern.
