Just a query, its a field that interests me and may be something I would consider providing I can first find the market etc.

If you was starting out and had the choice of any 10 cornsnake morphs what would you pick and in what sex? (I'm sure it takes a fair few more than 10 but just a hypothetical scenario).

Anery Corn snake SPOT. Royal Python, DUKE. Hogg Island Boa, SANKE. Albino House Snake, HAL.
Harlequin Crested Gecko HARLEY
Albino Horned Frog WAKA
Chilean Rose Tarantula TRIXIE. Brazilian Salmon Pink Bird-eating Tarantula SAM. Orange Baboon Tarantula BORIS.
Giant Asian Forest Scorpion, SALLY.
Giant African Land Snails, SHELDON & MICHELLE.
Budwing Mantis, MAIA
Dubia Roach Colony. Silkworm Colony. Mealworm Colony. Waxworm Colony. Fruit Beetle Colony.

Speaking as a total novice and from my limited experience I love all the different morphs but sex wise as a novice and going by my 2, girls every time, Custard is super chilled out 24/7 and then there's Rhubarb the little boy, hell bent on escaping, trashing his viv, refusing to eat for weeks and being a grumpy guts now I know that it will probably all settle down when the urge to breed has calmed down but as a new mum my nerves are shredded.

I'm glad I started off with my normal corn. Normals are gorgeous.

Sex of the snake im not sure yet as I have both but not at breeding age yet so not had any issues with horny males lol so they behave the same way.

I really can't pick any fave morphs, I'd have them all if I could!

Really would like a snow at some point and hopefully a lavender in a few years from one of my breeding pairs.

I don't see how morph comes into it... :/ doesn't really effect the snake, they should just have a hold and buy if they fall in love! Mine would be normals, Okeetees, Keys and Miamis. Mostly males, maybe a few girlies. I'd be too fussy over morphs.. Like any yellow morph would have to be super yellow, not a wish wash colour and no strips and stuff and I lavender that is actually lavender coloured not some kinda pale grey XD



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3

For some reason I thought it was in general, my bad XD

None. Having an accident breeding before any would be too much hassle. Plus there's enough homeless adults out there and even babies which puts me off... wouldn't want mine ending up like that.

Although id I had snakes with hets that would produce a butter.... I might be tempted to and keep a butter or myself.
