Hybrid Info

E. g. guttata

Her name was Mary-9/17/05
I'm looking for info on corn hybrids, their names, the specific crosses, and how much they cost. Any info you have would be much appreciated. This info will be posted on my site, and if you have links to people who sell these hybrids, could you please include them?
 
I know it's going to be hard to get strait answers out of anyone with all the vinny hijacking that happens around here, but I would really like to know this stuff so I can post it on my site. I'll bump this on a daily basis if I need to until I get some real replies.
 
I'm not a breeder yet, but

It is really hard to get much info on hybrids.... breeders are less than enthusiastic about putting their names out there for obvious reasons. I can tell you my experience from a buyers standpoint.... you can pay anywhere from $30 to $1000 for a colubrid hybrid, it can vary by breeder, species used (difficulty involved in the breeding process as well as looks of the parents) and the individual looks of each snake. Corn hybrids, like jungle corns and creamsicles, I have seen advertised from $30-150 for hatchlings. I located each of the breeders that I have dealt with through online classifieds, such as fauna and ks dot com.

If I were you, I would just do an online search through classifieds and google and contact each breeder individually for permission to list their site url and addy.

...Anyway.... here is a list of the hybrids (those that contain, or may contain cornsnake) that I have encountered so far.....

Jungle corn - california king X cornsnake. I have also seen the term "king corn" and "super corn" attached to this cross. The "super corns" were 75% corn, 25% king and looked pretty much like a corn.

Cornduran - honduran milk X cornsnake

Jurrasic Milk - various crosses have been labeled as a "jurrasic milk." They don't usually have corn in them, but I supposed that some could. They range from a sinolaon milk X california king to "florida lemon king" (california king X florida king) X honduran milk. I have a lovely anery Jurrasic milk that I am wondering if she has corn in her, her head is sort of corn-like and she is more outgoing and easy to handle than the other hatchling king/milk hybrids I have seen so far.

Various other milk/corn hybrids with no particular name assigned yet. I have a sinoloan/corn hybrid that is just gorgeous. Some breeders make up their own terms for these hybrids, but nothing that I have seen consistently.

Of course the creamsicle - emori X cornsnake, and other color variants. Typically called by color terms.

Ratsnake/corn hybrids.... such as yellow rat/corn, and black rat/corn. I don't know if these have official names. I'm sure I have heard a few terms thrown around by breeders are retailers selling these hyrbids, but again, nothing consistent.

Some "frosted corns" are grey rat/corn hybrids. I particularly like the frosted creamsicles.... corn/emori/gret rat hybrids.

I am sure there are other hybrids out there, since there are many combinations of king/corn or milk/corn that are possible....

good luck, charlene

Dont put my name into it If some wants they will email you If they dont want to post on this thread .
 
I have a beautiful and docile bull/corn cross that I am in love with. It was called a "turbo" corn. Probably because it grows bigger and faster than a pure corn. He's only two and he's the size of my adult corns, 36+ inches at least.

I intend to produce some of these next year by crossing him to an Okeetee (he's half Okeetee). I might breed my hypo bull to a corn, too.

I know many people are anti-hybrid because of species that don't naturally cross paths in the wild, but these are, for lack of a better word, domesticated pets. Like dogs, cats, horses and every other animal we keep in captivity, we breed for certain traits to improve their usefulness or their beauty. Snakes are no different. At some point, I see "new" breeds gaining popularity with snake owners because they are different.

Maybe we shouldn't tamper with nature, but as long as we are talking about captively kept animals and being responsible, I don't see the issues.

Well VInny, the sad truth is that any thread that has something that you think is a hybrid or has the word "hybrid" in it at all, you hijack, and unfortunately, I can already see my question going to waste, simply because you chose to look here. If there were a way to ban you from any thread I start, I would. Too bad I can't.

Anyways. If anyone can rememver the breeders they got their hybrids from, that would help me lots, and I hope to have a full complete list of hybrids by the end of the week. I have already tried using yahoo to locate the hybrid posibilites to no avail. I'll try looking into fauna on Monday to see if I can find anything there. Thanks for the info so far. Hopefully I can get a few more before the flamers come on there.

I may not know you, but I have seen how you function on these forums. That is all I need to know considering this topic.

Vinny, I'm not jumping on the bashing bandwagon, I know your spelling isn't the greatest, but you've done this every time you type this word.

They are hyBRIDS, not hyBIRDS. :rolleyes:

That was so well put. There are a lot of selectively bred and line bred 'races' of horse, cat, dog out there, that we humans have bred for our own aesthetic or functional needs...why not snakes too?

I'm a species purist for now but I have been salivating over some of the jungle corns I've seen, especially the 3 on Terri's site...WOW...all are beautiful in their own way...and sometimes the result is greater than the sum of the parts (beauty-speaking).

And here is some proof to what serp and connie have been saying. As long as a snake has certain traits that the buyer desires, then that snake will be sold, reguardless of the genetic background. I would love to get my hands on a Jungle or two, and I am trying to get a Kisatchie to see what they look like as anerys, amels, and snows.
 
Thanks for your help guys. I e-mailed both people asking my questoins and I'm waiting for them to get back to me on it. Hopefully I'll have a completed hybrid page by the end of the week.
