Have you ever seen one of these....

Arrrrgh! I'll be the first to admit that in Canada we have lots of folks who like to play "Frankenstein"; whether that be with corn morphs or playing with hybrids.

This just saddens me that some poor, unsuspecting, "I want a lavender corn" person is going to fall for this ad. The price is outrageous!

Looks like an anery mot to me.

Or maybe I'm all wrong. What do you think? Should I run to the bank and take out a loan?

This is my favorite part of the ad:

"I have personally not been able to find any corn snake breeder that has seen any corn like this before."

Wonder if he knows about this forum?

Thanks for letting me vent!!!!!!!

Reptile Corner 12 Wed October 18, 2006


Asking Price Condition
750.00 Excellent



Description: I produced this snake from an Anery Hurricane in 2001. I introdeuced multiple male corns with this unusual looking Hurrican, so I can not tell you what this snake is het. for or what to call it. It's partly strpied and partly motley, but 50% of this snake is also patternless. I have personally not been able to find any corn snake breeder that has seen any corn like this before. She produces a wide variaty of corn morphs each year. I'd be interested to see how many new corn morphs this snake can produce. She is by far the most unique corn I've produced or have seen. I had refused to part with this female in the past but I am making room for other projects. The price is not negotiable. She is ready to be cooled down and bred again. $750

Hey Ruth, I made a post here too about his previous ads.... super sunburst corn or something...... load of bullcrap. I'll see if I can find the post.

Here's the previous post about his other ads....

Funny, he never did respond to my email.

The first one, that is supposed to be the lavender, has been sold... I couldn't say if it was lavender or not, though it doesn't look like any lavender that I have seen, but it would have been better to see a picture of the entire snake. Instead of just a partial picture.

As for the sunblast thing he's selling, that looks more like a banded motley amel and 600$ is WAY too much for that! IMO...
