I can't choose!!

Recently I have come to the decision that I miss a couple of my "starter herps". I began keeping reptiles over 15 years ago and of course like most I had a couple of cornsnakes and a small colony of leopard geckos. After so many years I really miss those guys. So I decided I will add at least one of each to my household again. As for the leo's, that's easy to decide on because I pretty much like the normal morph the best. My only decision there is how many leo's to get! The cornsnake decision I'm finding much more difficult. I know I only want one cornsnake but I cannot decide on a morph. I have been looking and contemplating for months and I'm getting frustrated! I know what I like and don't like but narrowing it down to one is difficult. I do not like albino morphs with red eyes. I like dark eyes. As for coloring, I do not like really bright reds and oranges. I tend to like the yellows more. And I do like the classic corn as well. So I've been looking at them and have it narrowed down (I think) to a caramel motley, an amber, a golddust, or a hypo or hypo motley. Or a nice classic corn. Maybe you all could show me some pics of these morphs if you have any (particularly adults if possible, so I can see many examples)? Or other morphs you think I might like that I haven't thought of. Oh, and I do not like the striped corns much either.

Re: I can't choose!!

What about going in a slightly different direction? For example instead of trying to decide on a corn morph try a "Mex Mex" from JLassiter or instead of a Leo maybe an AFT... I think that's what I would do if I were having trouble deciding.

This will probably not make your decision any easier as everytime I look at it I see something else I like. But it does have just about every corn morph listed and has pictures against most of them. Happy choosing

Re: I can't choose!!

I'm a big fan of the motley pattern, I've got a normal motley because I love the bright reds and oranges myself so since that's your opposite and I don't know corn snake morphs all that well I guess I can only vote for the pattern

Could I possibly see a picture of your normal motley? I do like the classic corn, I just don't like the morphs with very, very bright colors. So yours is a classic corn with the motley pattern? How old?

That coral ghost is kind of pretty!

As for the Tessera, I'm not looking to spend quite that much money.

Out of the ones you listed, I'd choose the caramel motley.

Hypo motleys are kinda bright orange/red, at least mine is turning out that way.
