Hi... i've been active on a dutch forum... and everybody who got a corn that was a brighter kind of arange called it a creamsicle... they all agree that there has to be no white in the patern!

when is a cornsnake an amel and when is it a creamsicle!???

To be a creamsicle...it has to have emoryi blood in it and be amelanistic. In other words, a creamsicle is an intergrade or hybrid. A cream can (and most often) has white on it.

If an amel doesn't have emoryi blood in it, then it is simply an amel.
 
so you can not tell if a cornsnake is a creamsicle by their collors?? you have to know if one of their parents are emoryi!??

thanx!
 
As I understand it, creamsicles are any amelanistics that have at least one Great Plain rat snake anywhere in the ancestry. Amount of red pigment has no effect on the name.

The intention was to produce a more yellow than orange amelanistic. But repeated crossing back to corns tends to move the color more towards orange.

Combining amelanistic with caramel produces a nice yellow amelanistic corn snake which is called "butter". That does not require crossing to a Great Plains rat at all.
 
Paul is correct...if an amel corn has ANY blood from a Great Plains Rats Snake (Emoryi) in it, then it is a creamsicle. A creamsicle is not based on color (except that it is amel).
 
Hate to disappoint....

I have a female cream that has a white base and looks like a candycane. ;)

The only morph that fits this definition is 'Sunglow'. Sunglow is an amel with no white borders around the saddle... it's just red/orange/yellow.

Sunglows and Creamsicles are two separate things. Of course, everything I've heard indicates that over in Europe the morph names are all screwed up (in terms of, sellers will put any neat-sounding name on any corn they want, whether it's really that morph or not). That may be the source of your confusion.
