This is my new corn Alejandro :p but i have NO idea what type he is..walked into the pet store and just had to rescue him and of course the uneducated people there couldn't tell me his morph, let alone his gender. :poke:

Im just super curious, and super gratefull for the smart people on this site :bird::bowdown:

Thanks! kayla
 
Take a closer pic of the head pattern. When I first glanced at the photos, I thought "Sunkissed".....
 
Hunh. He's got the "het sunkissed" thing going on with the head pattern, and the saddles are fairly squared off.

Kayla, for breeding purposes, I would actually focus on this critter!
 
Wow good call Shiara, I wish I could look at a corn and tell what het it was..I dont have an eye for detail so its very hard for me to see all those little patterns and colors unless its pointed out....BTW,Very pretty snake Kayla..
 
I almost want to consider all these "het markers" codominant genes but it seems useless because they're rarely noticeable to begin with.
 
I think Rich nailed it...Sunkissed. The color and head pattern are so close to Sunkissed from what I can tell by the photos. Larger images would be a plus to help with the identification. Sunkissed really doesn't have much in the way of "het markers" unless it's in combo with motley or stripe, and then it's very "iffy". It reminds me a lot of this female:
