very beautiful little snake :) welcome to the forum!

I would say it's an RO, it has really nice think white borders, but I'm no expert. has a lot of orange too which it beautiful. I hope one day to have an RO.
 
THANKS!! :)
ive never even joined a forum or anything like this before.
so im definitely excited to learn. i already know housing/feeding 101. just the fine details i hope to work out. especially learn about what all this poss/het genetic stuff all means!!
 
Welcome!
you'll be supprised how fast you pick up the 'lingo' and other info about these snakes. I find learning about them as addictive as they are themselves. Cornsnakes are known to be quite addictive. lol...the genetics can make your head spin at first...but just go slowly and ask lots of questions. the people here know tonnes and are great about helping people learn.

I agree, a good way to tell if it's motley or not is by looking at the belly. all white = motley, checkers = no motley.

I've been on the site for a bit and I'm still learning new things here everyday. And yes they are very very addicting. They are like the crack of the reptile world. Lol.

A good site to mess around with genetics on is this site, http://corncalc.com/ . You can learn what each gene combined can make, with links to pictures so you can see what you created! I can mess around on that site all day. :rofl:

Again, welcome to the site and hope you have a blast learning and making friends! ^_^
 
Looks like a RO to me but I'm a noobie, so all I can say with confidence is --

PRETTY!
 
sweet!!! thank you everybody for your responses!
ok yea then its not motley. the patter right by its head looks like it a tiny bit. but idk im a noob. and yes i m already very much so addicted to learning about this creature.

thanks again
