Butter and Creamsicle - hoping for best of both

Most recent pairing of corns - creamsicle male with butter female - hoping to increase the yellow intensity in the creamsicles.

Just to note also that these offspring will not be considered pure cornsnake - the creamsicle line of corns has great plains ratsnake genetics included - so all offspring that are sold (I don't know that I will be parting with any from this clutch) will be labeled creamsicles (maybe buttercremes - like the candy!)

Nice creamsicle!

Can't wait to see what the babies look like, especially when they are adults.

There you go Mary...

Reminds me of grandmas cooking, just throw some cream on the butter and dinners ready.

Good work!

Many thanks to everyone for the kind comments and thanks to Ryan and Sheila for that creamsicle as well as the one below - doing his thing with a pretty little amel female. These snakes got me keen on corns!

These creamsicles have almost no white - making them the equivalent of what is being sold as 'harvest creams' by various breeders in the US. While I like that look, I also like the white borders, so this breeding will hopefully produce some wide bordered creamsicles. This male has a pattern more like the great plains ratsnake ancestry and has narrower saddles with paler gound color.

Those two are going to make some sweet looking babies! I can't wait to see the result! I have a adult male creamsicle that I'm just dying to breed with a red creamsicle female.
