Hey guys argh frustrated much!! last 2 days ive been trying to locate a corn to put a deposit on (everythings ready to go just dont have a stat yet which should be sorted tomorrow afternoon)Someone kindly reccomended pro corns which id love to use unfortunately though considering how far it is from me and i dont drive (public transport just not an option)im kinda limited to distance i can travel in in Taunton/somerset but i can easily travel to devon/exeter/bristol or plymouth so if anyone knows of any breeders local i would be eternally gratefull
I initally convinced myself i wasnt too bothered about morphs but after so much shopping around on various sites and things ive pretty much got my heart set on either an okeetee or a butter motley lol but ultimately i cant afford to be choosey i guess i just feel a bit cheated when i see the prices breeders are charging online but if i purchase locally from any of the reptile stockists here i can except to pay 40-70 quid for a common
Thanks in advance

Hey guys thanks for all your advice and help if only i could drive lol itd be so much easier the cost of courier seems to be about the same as what it would cost me to travel on public transport to any of the stockists id preferably like to use then obviously add to that the cost of the snake itself and its probably gonna cost me the same as buying locally
Ive found a snake now and have reserved it hopefully getting it sunday all being well (my heat mat hasnt arrived yet) got my stat now everythings all set
http://www.ajreptiles.co.uk/images/live/207.jpg this is the corn im gonna be buying not sure if its a male or female will ask when i go see its a hypo corn looks pretty cool looking forward to
seeing it in the flesh thanks so much guys for all your help and advice.
Kehhlyr really appreciate the offer if for some reason i dont end up purchasing the above snake i may take u up on it tyvm

I may possibly be going to Wells, in Somerset on Friday the 12th or Sunday the 14th of this month.
I'm in Bournemouth, so if you find one locally to me, I will be able to bring it there. I believe that's about 25 miles or so from Taunton. |

Another one I've seen recommended on here is AC Snakes
http://www.acsnakes.co.uk/available.htm#Corn
I think it's the shop of one of the posters on here, but I can't remember their name. I found another place just by searching online, no idea if they are good though.

Sure there are many more. I started with a google search for "corn hatchlings <my area>" and just clicked a few links...
Good luck finding yourself your perfect corn!

some breeders will send snakes by courier, but obviously will put the price up a tad. There are a couple on here that i've heard are good Cymru corns is one i remember, sorry to the others whos name I've forgot. |

Some pet-stores have a classifieds board, our local Jolleyes has one and there's usually atleast a few breeders with cards up. Alternatively places like Gumtree and pre-loved might provide contacts. Unfortunately I'm not near you so I can't give specific advice. |
