I did it again...(and help me ID Color)

[Sanebedlam]

Alright so I was browsing craigs list today and saw an add for "Corn snake for sale $40" I figured what the heck and gave them a call it turns out it was a 2-3 year old snake that had bit the mom in the family once then they were all to scared to keep it so I went over and loved him so I picked him up today got him a whole new setup (His old setup was pretty nasty) so here he is.

Also any help with what his coloration is would be greatly appreciated I am thinking Carmel?

Very nice looking snake..It looks like a normal to me..but it's colors do seem to be a little on the light side..Either way...cute guy!..::rushes to Craigslist to see what's in her area:: lol..So does he come with a name?

 

[Sanebedlam]

They called him "Berlin" but I think his name is going to be changed to something greek mythology like

Well if it's greek mythology your looking into...I would like to suggest...Iiolis (spelling??) I know in the herculese show with kevin sorbo he was herc's side kick...I know he had a more important role in greek mythology but I'm not sure of what..but I like the name and think it would fit him..either way..it's a suggestion..hehehe

 

[captaincaveman]

Im a bit confused on this one, everyones put normal,when the belly is clearly showing a migration of the black belly to the edges, time to rip another page out of the morph guide lol

Caveman, I'm not sure where you've seen or read that a hypo's belly pattern migrates in the way you've mentioned. I know several of my normals have a similar belly pattern to this one. Where did you read that? I'd like to see what it says.

My taming process has consited of picking him up...Nuff said haha he is quite tame just had a feeding response issue on his previous owners finger. He is a doll! as you can see in the picture.
