Long story short, I found a classified ad selling snakes around my area so went to check. I was quite glad I sort of "rescued" these. The lady was a single mom with 2 kids and had to sell the snakes to buy birthday presents for her daughter. I don't think she can maintain the snakes any longer. Both were housed in the same viv but one is disporportionally larger than the other (though they were supposedly same size, same batch).

Can someone please let me know what morph are these? I'm thinking standard amel for the small one and standard sunglow-ish for the large one. Both have checkers belly so not motley.

The small one - a female



The larger one - a male



No, you are not seeing things. It's the same hand holding both.

One is a fair bit bigger! Guess this really shows how age and size don't go hand in hand! I'd tend to agree with your guess, but I'm not very well up on morphs, lovely snakes though! Congrats on the new arrivals! x

What if they are not from the same clutch? I texted the previous owner who told me they were bought at the same time, approximately same size but she doesn't know if it's the same clutch.

then its possible.

If they're from the same clutch and one is a creamsicle (a hybrid) then they're all hybrids. Its all but impossible sometimes to tell the difference between creamsicle and amel especially as the amount of cornsnake influence increases.

Thank you. I am totally calling the fat one a Creamsicle now.

Found this pic on Flickr. This guy seems like at least a huge snake enthusiast and he call the one below a Creamsicle.

Maybe if you got them in some better lighting you may get a better idea? These photos seem to be in light that is already very yellowish. They do look very much like an amel and a yellow-based corn, like a butter, or hybrid creamsicle. Good job on these two ^^ They seem very well behaved!

Below are 2 pics, corrected for White Balance. I took the pics in RAW format so the colors are very close to actual color.
