Calico Corn Information?

Actually tha snake is about 95% white, the other speckes of color include black, grey, red, and a good bit of orange which is found on the underside of the snake near the base of the tail, even though you can not really see the eyes all that well, the pupils are black and the surrounding eye is a pail grey. I have the snake! At first I thought the same, maybe some kind of black or greyish rat morph, but considering the amount of orange and red on the snake and scale count on the head, the location it has found and a few other things that I know about this snake, I am 99% sure it is a corn snake. But then again either way it is one of a kind!

I don't care what it is, that is one of the most astounding snakes I have ever seen and I want it!

How about a photo shoot of him???

I agree! Don't leave us hanging with just one pic!! We need lots more!!!

Macro shots of the head and eyes would be awesome too!

I agree completely, and I just want to add that he needs to ship it to Tula_Montage for the photo shoot....

Also FWIW the shiny red thing in the center of the circle appears to be a tick to me....

Ew, it even has legs!

The reason I am interested in them is because on a recent hunting trip I aquired a calico corn that is 95% white with only scattered scale coloring only a few scales in diameter across it's body, so , I am seriously looking for some one that can point my in the right direction to get some type of breeder program started. Thanks for any info that you can give!

Wayne is this "Calico Corn" your snake? Look at this link

In this link it say's that the snake was found and then sold to Paul's very good friend. You talk that you found it and keeping it for a breeding project.

If you read through the messages on the above link, you'll also discover that Paul will not reveal where the snake was captured in SC, as in, won't even reveal the county. He's on my s**tlist too, because he made a racist remark. It's hard to have respect for anyone who makes comments like that.

Also looking at the head, I'm still not convinced it's a corn. I vote black rat or some sort of racer....maybe a partial leucistic or something. I'd still like to see macro head shots from all angles to confirm ID.
