I love the colors. I've never known what makes what morph. I've just gone online and looked at all the colors. When I got Snickers i was wanting a purple one but they were out. Now I'm glad that I got a normal. I've read that the more breeding the weaker they are physically. I don't know how true that is, but I know I need a toughy for my first experience.

I have never heard this, and certainly never experienced any breeding related weaknesses myself, I really don't think its anything to worry about.

Creamsicles are only produced by crossing a regular corn snake with an emory rat snake. They are hybrids.

People keep talking about the snakes changing colors and I've not seen any permanant changes in Snickers' colors except to become brighter immediately after shedding. I'm beginning to wonder.

most corns will show a change in colouration between hatching and maturation- normals start off dull, reddish brown, and end up vibrant red and orange. Snows start off pinky white with saddle marks, and end up white with yellow sides to the head and neck, and greatly reduced saddles.

I have pics in my FB of Snickers progressively placed and there is no change in her color from one pic to another. Her colors are the same when she was a thread with a head attached as they were in her most recent pic which you guys have. hmmmm.

Unfortunately you cannot always trust what pet shops tell you and they might not even know for sure what the parents of Shearer really are. To be honest, does it really matter as he is stunning whatever he is?!

Snickers is still very young and there is a lot of time for him to change colour....even Kellog is still changing slightly and he is 4.5yrs old. Just be patient, wait and see what happens.
