Since having Claude I always assumed he was a garden variety corn, but my other half came to visit him earlier today and said that he wasn't normal corn colours and thought he was a caramel? I say my OH is talking bull, personally, but for the sake of argument could someone confirm if he is a normal or something else? If he's a normal is he some kind of wild phase etc etc?
He has black checkers on the underside of his throat, down the rest of his underbelly they are all a browny colour like his body, not the saddles/spots.
Normal lighting, he looks like this in daylight:
With flash he looks a lot more orange hence my assumption of normal:
Thank you for taking the time to read and hopefully put an end to the debate between my other half!! X |

Aww noes! Confusion sort of returns? I had to ask as I had a peek on the morph guide on ian vivarium and right n the caramel page there is a very similar looking snake that's been taken with a flash photo! Confusion reigns supreme! He really isn't as bright a colour in daylight though :/
Thank you ntbryenton! |

xD I know! When my OH told me what he thought I went straight to Ians Vivarium to look at morphs and first thought my OH was way off until I saw this photo on the owner submissions on the caramel page! http://iansvivarium.com/morphs/species/elaphe_guttata/caramel/images/caramel-m05.jpg Then I was like.. Oh.. Well.. Now I really am confused!! He's due some food in a couple of days and is getting a bit more active during the day so I'll scoop him out and try and get a much clearer daylight photo of him. He only comes up seriously orange in flash-photos! :/

could be caramel, but not from that last pic, certainly hypo though, pics are dodgy though, better to see in the flesh! |

Haha, he likes his air of mystery, apparently! Thank you very much for your input though, really do appreciate it! :) |
