Help, What breed is samus?

[Xaviar]

does anyone have any idea what breed my little baby corn samus is? i think shes a kind of okeetee, but im not sure, any suggestions would be greatly appriciated!

Samus looks like a nice little normal to me

 

[Xaviar]

but she's got dark purple/red saddles, whilst a normal okeetee has orangey ones

 

[Guenhwyvar]

Does he look like this picture color-wise?

 

[Xaviar]

no, too red, shes got purple saddles

 

[Guenhwyvar]

Well, you might see if you could get a clearer picture for us It'd be easier to tell.

 

[Xaviar]

i'll try my best, but ive got a pants camera

 

[Guenhwyvar]

From what I can see it looks like you have a normal there, but because he is still little, the colors haven't fully developed yet. My guess is that he will get redder with time/sheds.

 

[Xaviar]

ok, thanks for your help

Do the saddles look burgundy like this? This is my normal (okeetee phase) when I first got it.

*Yes that is sand. That was before I knew better.*

A better question would be what kind of saddle borders does your little one have. Okeetee Phase corns have very thick, very dark borders.

To me it looks as if you have a normal.

 

[Xaviar]

sorta, but they're a bit lighter than that

 

[Jimmy Johnson]

does it look like these?

Does it look like either of these?
These have more of a maroon saddle like you mentioned.
they are both normals

Here is the same snake as in my other picture, but his colors look different in all of them. His saddles started off almost black, then changed to a deep burgundy(purplish), and now they are just red.

I would say from your pictures that your little one 'looks' more like a normal than an okeetee but better pictures would help if you can find someone that could loan you a digital camera. From what it looks like in your pictures he doesn't seem to have the nice orange coming into his body that an okeetee would have, even young ones have some orange in them, especially as yours would be a yearling. I am sure that regardless if he is a "normal" or an "okeetee" he is a beautiful snake.

thats it! that's her scale colours! what breed is she then?

He's an Okeetee Phase normal. Ug I hate saying normal because he's so BEAUTIFUL!
Glad I could help :cheers:

I think it has to have thick black boarders to be an Okeetee phase, otherwise it's just a normal rolleyes: there I go again, just a normal lol). I don't see thick boarders in your pictures, but the colors aren't showing up very well so they could be there.

I said "I think" because some people say it just has to have the bright orange and red to be Okeetee phase. I'm not sure which is right, or if thats part of the whole Okeetee debate.

 

[Xaviar]

well, se does have quite thick saddle borders...

Just a normal . . .

I think Rhiannon is beautiful, even if she IS "just a normal" . . .
