First time owner and still learning

:cheers:Hi my name is Frank and I live in SoCal. Thanks to wife wanting to check out the local reptile show in Pomona, my stepson and I were able to become proud owners of our first baby albino corn snake. Due to her red and pink colors my wife named her Lucy, for "I Love Lucy". I'm still doing a lot of reading on them and hope to learn a lot more. I just happen to find this site while doing a search for corn snakes. I try to handle her a couple times each day. At first she was pretty skitish but she is starting to warm up to me.

hello and welcome! this is a great site to learn more from!:)

PS. cute little little lady you have yourself their!:eek:
 
Welcome and Congratz!

However, I don't believe that is an albino. It looks to be a reverse okeetee.

Definately a cutie! I don't see a ro personally, no way enough white around the saddles, but i have been wrong before. Amels are gorgeous as babies and just get better!

Very beautiful amel. Definitely not enough white to be an RO, though. Welcome to the addiction!
 
Welcome to the site. IT's great. I was also at the Pomona show. I enjoyed it, but glad I was there early, because it got way too crowded for me.
 
Yeah still learning all the lingo. The case she was in said she was an albino so I just went with that. She is fascinating to watch and hold.
 
She's cute! She's a type of albino called amelanistic, which means she has no black pigment (melanin). My first corn was/is also an amel, and I named her Wilma for the same reason yours is named Lucy!

Welcome to the forum!
 
If you're referring to the signature, those are the sexes of their animals. A number before the period is males, after the period is females, and a number after the second period means sex unknown. For example, mine will show one female butter het motley, one female amel tessera, one male dumerils boa, and somewhere on there is an unknown ball python. Is this what you were asking?
 
so if someone has 6.9.2 corns, they have six males, 9 females, and 2 corns with unknown sex.
