I might be able to help :-)
Okeetees are "locality" snakes - their ancestors come from a certain area ( Okeetee hunt club land, I think ) - they are the "ultimate normal " corn snake, they have very clean colours, well defined black saddle borders, nice boldly chequered bellies. There's a debate, whether a true Okeetee is one, whose ancestors come from that particular locality, or whether any snake, that fits the Okeetee description is an Okeetee.
There are various types of Okeetees - for example Abbotts Okeetee - they are bred for especially thick black borders around the saddles, extreme Okeetees, Buckskin Okeetees ( Check out South Mountain Reptiles website - American breeders, they have couple of types of Okeetees ).
Carolinas are your classic, wild type corn snake. They can vary enormously in their appearance - check out Ian' s Vivarium - guide to the reptile morphs - but beware - once you start looking there, you'll be hooked :-) |
