my 2 little ones

[rainbow_bright83]

So our newest little guy is our Snow. She isn't as flighty as she once was and we've only had her almost 3 weeks. She shed last week and has stopped being so hard to feed.


The other guy is Optimus and we've had him since May. He shed just today. He has gotten so calm when being handled. Not sure what he is, I think a normal? But he has a white belly, no checkers.

anyway, just wanted to show them off!

Pretty babies! Your snow is pretty pink, I bet she will be a nice looking adult. Your other snake looks like he might be a low quality diffused (no offense intended at all! ), if he doesn't have belly checks.

 

[vetusvates]

Very nice.
More pics of Optimus would be interesting.

 

[LittleFrog]

Very pretty babies! I love the name Optimus, what's your snow's name?

 

[rainbow_bright83]

I will be taking more pics of optimus soon I hope. My daughter named our snow Snow. Lol Its so original isnt it?!? I was like why not snow white? And my daughter told me that it could be the third name. Lol

LOL, that's cute! Is Optimus named after Optimus Prime?

 

[rainbow_bright83]

Yes, my son named him.

the first pic was taken recently. The second pic is when we first got him. As we are new to corns, it surprised me to see how much he has changed in color!

As for him being a low quality diffused, my feelings are not hurt at all. Lol. This little guy is special to us since he really got me and my kids into corn snakes!

I will try and take more pics of him but I only have my darn phone camera since my kids decided to soak my camera in snapple

 

[hypnoctopus]

Yeah, a lot of the morphs change color pretty drastically as they grow. He doesn't really look like a diffused or a motley, so I don't know why he doesn't have belly checkers.

 

[rainbow_bright83]

Hmmm. Im new to all this so I dont know why either. I will post a pic of his belly later and a few more pics of him in better lighting. The sun was going down when I took the other pics.
My kids are more curious about "what" he is than I am. I already know what he is, which is CUTE! Lol

 

[rainbow_bright83]

First off, I am horrible at photography so please excuse my pictures. Unfortunately my skills take after my grandmother, who is notorious for cutting peoples heads off in photos. lol


So please let me know your opinion as to what he is.

 

[vetusvates]

I suspected a ventral shot was to come...that would be like that.

In other words, I think he is a motley.

 

[hypnoctopus]

He really doesn't look diffused, so I think that's what I'll go with too.

 

[rainbow_bright83]

Thanks guys. I got him at a petco and he was labeled a fancy corn. The employee couldn't really tell me anything about him.

 

[rainbow_bright83]

Optimus is growing much to my husbands dismay. Lol
He's such a chill little guy!

 

[bruce mccollum]

Beautiful snakes how old is biggest one.. Sorry still new to this okeetee right? [emoji16] I just don't want be wrong and sound stupid!

 

[rainbow_bright83]

Optimus is a normal motley. Not sure exactly how old he is since we picked him up from Petco, but we've had him for almost 6 months!

 

[rainbow_bright83]

Here is snow, she's a little more skittish

 

[bruce mccollum]

How old is your snow who is also beautiful! And one more question how long is your normal motley because my snake is around 4 months old and he is around 1 and a half feet and I'm just curious as to how much he'll grow in a couple more months!

 

[rainbow_bright83]

My snow I got from a reptile expo in August. The exact date of when the snow was hatched is not known. But she was young!

Our motley is around 20 inches long. I will try and get a more accurate measurement in a couple days.
