Hi everyone, I am looking for some help as when I bought Saffron the reptile shop told me she was a Coral Snow but when looking in Ian’s Vavarium she looks nothing like what is on there. Have taken some pics (with my phone, excuse the quality) and would appreciate any help. Her eyes are redish pink and very vibrant which the photos don’t show. Thanks

Was it a rep shop or a pet shop?

If you paid more for her supposedly being a 'Coral Snow', then I would go back and say you are dubious on that account because of exhibit a image, exhibit b image and so on, and would like some compensation for their liiiies! Obviously, she's a cracking snake, so you don't want a complete refund, but shops really should be clearer on the types before selling. My closest rep shop doesn't even say what types of corns they have, just 'All hatchling corns £65' then they have some clearly Carolina Adults that they are saying are Anerys for £85. I wouldn't buy snakes from them personally, seeing so many in such small tanks at one time, despite looking well, but they don't seem to have much of an idea on the pricing of these guys. One further in town sells corns for a heck of a lot cheaper, and better quality, with true knowledge of the morphs they have. |

Thats what i was thinking as I did pay £65 for her when they were selling others for much less. Going there tomorrow as i have just Re-homed 3 corns this evening and need to go buy some mice so i will ask them and see what happens.
Thanks Very much.

Thanks for the advise, went back with lots of pictures and got some of the money refunded.
