Just looking through a list of Colubrids and came across it. Haven't heard of it before but it looks just like a normal corn, just a chocolatey brown colour.
yeah I have googled it, it has a different scientific name, it's elaphe slowinskii as opposed to elaphe guttata, that's what made me think it could be another species.
For anyone who is interested I found this. "was thought to be an intergrade subspecies of the Red Cornsnake and Great Plains Ratsnake, but it has recently been elevated to species status"
is its owns sub species, used to be known as a corn (kisatchie) but was upgraded to its own species. Some call it a slowinski rat snake. Unfortunately not very common but cracking snakes to look at. oh we got one though lol
