Re: is this a normal??

thanks so much everyone..

i hate to be the person to cause an argument, but after some looking i deff. think its an anery. not a normal, normals are more red and orange, as infernalis stated earlier...

after looking at the miami phase, it looks like the baby. If it is a miami, i will buy it no matter what the fiancee says!!!! lol

heres another pic, of the cage mate ( looks the same..)



and i took the pics with my phone, so it is a good camera, (8megapixels) i mean there is NO red on either of these snakes...

clikc the pic for a full size view, you can see the colors a tiny bit better


again, thanks everyone!

Re: is this a normal??

Some normals and aneries are more brownish than what's considered standard. Miami's are also quite red, so I'm not convinced of that id. My initial guess based on the first photo was caramel as they usually start off more brownish (which is what I'm seeing) and develop into various yellows, but the second pic has me a little confuddled. Trying to id most morphs online is quite difficult, never mind trying to id most hatchlings without a clue to lineage. Where are you getting the snake from? Are they unsure of it's morph?

Re: is this a normal??

OK I confess, mine came from petco... but here's the deal, they buy them in bulk all labeled "corn snakes" then it's up to us the buyer to chose what colour we like.

a random Miami phase from petco is very rare, and the Anery / Albinos are all mixed in together.

Heck, I seldom see a normal for sale at petco anyhow, because the mass breeding suppliers use assorted morphs as breeding stock, so virtually all corns sold at petco have one form of genetic mutation or another.

Huh, good to know... i doubt it is a miami phase as well, im going to go look at them tomorrow, and hold one, if i dont get it i will get more pics to post so everyone can see.

when i get the go ahead from the fiancee, i will be getting him/her. I ultimatly want 3 corns, 3 balls, and my BRB, so this will finish one of the lists...

Re: is this a normal??

Good suggestion Shmoges. If you pick this one up LiL Boa get a good pic of the head, I believe the overall head shape and the size and shape of the scales on the head are some ways to help determine if it's a hybrid.
