New colors???

Someone I know has just had her Corn eggs hatch and she has some interesting color patterns that i have never seen before or even heard of, and i was wondering if anyone could help us identify them. 3 are very much Charcoal but with a wierd twist: they have little red dots between the saddles, almost looks like chicken pocks! And 1 baby is Okeetee have way down its body then it cuts right off and turns to a very dark Charcoal. Sorry i have no pics but if anyone has even heard of anything like this please give us your info. Thanks a bunch!

I know, but this is her first time with babies and she hasn't gotten around to the picture stage yet, but i thought i would just see if anyone has ever seen anything like what i described, because if you had ever seen anything like them you would know right away what i was talking about they are very distinct looking.

Another problem is that with babies, you never know what they'll look like when they grow up....

Knowing what the parents were and what they are or may be het for would also help. If they just hatched you'll see a big difference even after their first shed.
Cheers,

see what happens after they have shed.

They will turn out totally different from what they look like a year later. I have an orange candy cane from Don that is totally red a few months ago.....and last week when I took a look at her again she is now bright orange.......(in fact one of the most intense orange and white that I have in my candy cane collection)

So post some photos and see what happens later on!

It'll be great to find another new morph in the corn snakes~

Thanks all for the info, I will try to get pics up especially if i get a couple of them. That would be very awesome if it was some kind of new morph!!! The one that is half charcoal and half okeetee is really fantastic! I will post again in a couple of weeks and let you all know how things develop.

FireSerpent -

I saw a picture on cornsnakes.net. It sounds like a frosted corn to me. They change their pattern about halfway down the body in some. Have a look there.. they have 65 morphs, but if you look through the ones that say "frosted" you'll find one that fits the description you posted above.
