Here are a few of my corns - all just over 2 years old and great snakes. I don't have any Maimi (Simon has the most spectacular one I have ever seen - maybe he will post her photo again). Hope you like.

Wow I love creamsicles too. I really would like to have a pair. But I like a certain look, so I am kinda picky...the first pic Mary V posted is the color of creamsicle I want! Sometimes you find them lighter or darker, but that one is perfect!

I also love candy canes. But I don't see many photos of them. Maybe someone will post some.

Vanderkm, what's the difference between a snow and a blizzard? The percentage of heterozygous for amelanistic?

You could search archived posts and find most every morph, I think. Here's a pic of a Miami female that I've posted before.

Froglet - Both snows and blizzards are heterozygous for amelanism so no melanin is produced. Both varieties are heterozygous for an anerythristic gene that controls the amount of red (and yellow) pigment that is expressed, and there are two different varieties of this gene (A and B) that make the difference between snow and blizzard.
The snows, in addition to amelanistic, are homozygous for anery 'A' (the more common type of anery gene around here anyway). When this is present without amelanism it produces the black and white corns that usually have a striking yellow throat when mature. Snows are white but you usually get quite pronounced head and saddle markings that can vary from cream, through yellow, shades of green and pink because the Anery A does not elminate all the red or yellow expression.
The blizzards are homozygous for both amelanism and Anery B (also called charcoal - when this is present without the amelanism it produces a black and white corn that is greyer or has softer tones to it, and often, but not always lacks the yellow of the anery A). Blizzards don't usually show pinks at all and aren't supposed to show any yellow either, but some have faint tracings of yellow around the saddle pattern and throat as they grow. My male, Boo, has this, and even if it isn't strictly correct, I have gotten to like it.
I really like them both - actually I really like all the corn colors - they are such neat snakes and there is so much to learn and try with their genetics.
