Can Somebody Tell Me What Kind Of Snake This Is?

comment was not appropriate and removed... "I was wrong"

anyone else want to take some personal shots and me and my time in the kingsnake forum?

Feel better.
 
truce Jimmy (and <sigh> Clint), sorry...

LOL, is there a way to start this thread over? to the outsider these posts much look wierd all edited and such...

EDIT: can someone post more pics of motley's, hybrids and possibly a good link to a site where maybe I can learn something about how to make the tougher calls?
 
hard calls

I usually just try not to guess on ones I am not sure of.
Otherwise I just look at as many pictures as I can. Different sites, different posts whatever I can find. After a while some become fairly easy to identify(some). Others can take some comparrisons.
Lots of comparrisons. And then still no clear cut answers.
here are a couple of pictures of my amel motley.
I think it is pretty easy to see what it is.

But here is a female cream that is a little different. I was originally under the impression she was an amel.
She looks like quite a few regular amels I have seen or even a little like a reverse okeetee. I just saw something a little different about her so I talked to the breeder and took her in for him to identify. Something about the deep yellows made me wonder. It turned out she is a creamsicle from a cream/reverse okeetee project. She just happened to be placed in the wrong display tank as a hatchling. There was no way to tell as a hatchling. Not really much of a way to tell now. He had a male that looked exactly like her. I might have to get him one of these days.
Of course with creams I still prefer intergrade over hybrid. I still haven't seen proof that they are separate species.

Wow, this thread really went off in a different direction....lol

All over a little normal Motley:D

Here is a pic of my normal Motleys, Penny & Snap when they were babies:

They came from Rich Z so I'm pretty certain they are NOT hybrids
;)
 
anyone have any pics of banded corns? Are all banded corns hybrids? I never realized and forgot to mention that the whole reason I thought those motley's were <insert "H-word" here> was because they looked banded and not what I always thought of as typical (circles down the back) motley's.

thanks
