3 New Additions!

[mkmorphs]

I picked up 3 new corns at the HERPS Expo in Austin, TX this past weekend and I wanted to share them with you!

This is a 2014 "probable female" Anery. This one immediately caught my boyfriends eye and we had to pick it up. After we prove, whether male or female, it will be one of our favorites!

2015 Male Coral Snow! This little dude is ridiculously pink, and has some really cool abberancies in his pattern.

That is him in the middle.

I might need help with this next one. This 2015 male reverse okeetee was given to me for free as a "possible non feeder". (The breeder had put two in a deli cup together and couldn't remember which had been feeding.) He has good body condition and is alert. So far I have just tried leaving him in a deli cup overnight with a thawed pink. Will try brining next, but any tips would be great! I already have a few potential homes lined up once he starts feeding regularly, although I am tempted to keep him!

Wow, great pickups! I love the heavy amount of frosting on the anery's saddles.

As for the possible non-feeder, if you scroll down the main page and click on Nanci's subforum, she has a great list of feeding tricks that you can try.

Thanks for the tips! I know a few of them, like boiling, washing in dawn, braining, etc, but since he has only been with me I haven't really gotten to try more than the one time.

Looking for reverse okeetee

I just made the decision earlier today to get a corn snake for my son. And decided I liked the reverse okeetee the best...I've been looking online for one but haven't been impressed with anything I've seen so far...i typed in a search to see if anyone was looking to unload one in the Austin area and came upon your post. I'm so bummed to realize I just missed the expo! I so love the pic you posted of your reverse, it's exactly what I've been looking for...if you get it to eat and the other homes you have in mind fall through please do let me know..or if you could give me the name of the breeder so I could contact him if any more are available now or in the future I would really, really appreciate it!

I love your pics! I've ordered an Extreme Reverse Okeetee from South Mountain Reptiles which will arrive on Sept 1st. Congrats on getting one! Probably won't be a problem eater if it was the picky one ... just needs a few feedings to get it going.
Also, can you tell me what camera you're using? Great photos!

Isa- it isn't letting me send you a pm, but he was produced by Austin Reptile Connection, and they should have quite a few more, and many are very high white.

Kdickens- thank you! I was chatting with Don today at the Daytona expo, great guy! I took these photos on my Samsung Note 4, with the camera on auto
