Kisatchie corn question

taxman123

It could be worse!!!
I just got a trio of Kisatchie corns and wanted to know if I breed one of them to a corn snake does that make the offspring hybrids? I just want to make sure when I do breed them that I label the pips right. thanks

That is a breeding that many would frown upon because the progeny will only dilute other types of corns down the road. All that is sure to happen is that they will create many more misidentified snakes that will get bought and bred completing the whole cycle all over again by the many folds with their offspring's offspring, and so on, and so on.......

Anyway, they are a distinct form whether or not they are a distinct subspecies or not.......but as of now they are P.g. slowinskii.

Here is what KJ Lodrigue says about them in great detail.
