NAME THAT MORPH!

I still say it is just an albino cal king. If it is a jungle its must only have 1/16 corn blood in it. Cal kings pattern can be extremely variable.

Ditto to the max. The only thing that suggests corn snake influence to me is the fact that I'm looking at the pictures on a corn forum. :flames:

I'm glad everyone thinks this guy isn't a pure corn because I looked at his head thought he wasn't, then thought I must be wrong because I am a newbie. Anyway, he is pretty, whatever his genetics may be. I think he's a hybrid because his pattern looks like a corn snake pattern, but hey! what do I know?

I say jungle corn as the head shape/length is wrong for a pure Cali king. Yes, the color is albino Cali king, but jungles come in such a variety of percentages and phenotypes that you really can't tell what the exact mix is unless the breeder who put everything together tells you. For some stunning hybrid examples, check this site out: Mesozoic Reptiles

I'm at 99 percent jungle! 1% King.

SUSAN THAT WEBSITE NNNNGGGGGGGGG

I love hybrids so much... so tempting! ;____;

First gen Jungles can have varying degrees of Corn/King appearances. Furthermore, if you take that first gen and breed it to a king... voila. That is definitely not pure king, but it sure is retaining that king look. I would say that your Jungles are definitely retaining the corn look.

Just to give an example, this little guy is 50% California King, 25% Desert King, and 25% Cornsnakes. As he matures, those yellows will turn a pastel color, and that pink will turn white... just like the OPs male.

That doesnt look anything like the subject snake in this thread. The hybrids you have posted has saddles like a corn the albino cal king doesnt. And the head of this snake is corn like and it is only 25% corn.

There is a difference in the exact coloration between a juvenile albino and an adult. The head shape of the OP's snake ("cleaned up" a bit here) just doesn't look like that of a pure California king to me.

The 3rd and 4th pics look identical, besides the fact that the 3rd is banded and the 4th(OP's) is aberrant.

 

[ForkedTung]

The distance from the eyes to the end of the nose is just too long for a pure King, it's not stubby enough. IMHO

 

[Crazy Colubrids]

1. snow corn 2. Aberrant Cal king 3. Albino Jungle corn 4. OP's

Ok, sloppily traced over that kingsnake photo and a known corn snake photo. Here are the results.

As you can see, only a slight difference there. Of course, the photos I used were a bit blurry, so these could be inaccurate.

Hi - was just wondering if someone could help me with my corns - especially as they've bred and had babies ^_^

The orange/red one is the male

The Black & Silver one is the ONE female (we have two)

The smaller black & silver one and the pinky one are their two surviving children

Just wondering what morphs the parents are and what morphs the babies are - we've tried to find em online but haven't had much luck.

Cheers

Follow up...........

Hi

Seems like those pictures did not attach last time - sorry about that.

Here they are, in order;

Father
Mother
Baby 1
Baby 2

Again, I'd like some insight into the morphs of the parents AND the morphs of the babies please.

Cheers

Amel het anery (amelanistic = no black pigments) Anery het amel (anerythristic= no red pigment) Anery, Snow (expressing anery + amel) To get a snow both parents have to carry the anery and amel genes.

 

[BarryK]

Thanks for that - we were pretty sure about the parents but we puzzled over how we got the Snow Corn - he/she came as something of a surprise.

I'll also post a question about our 2nd set of hatchlings when they have all finished hatching out (so far only 1 has come out completely and the 2nd has his/her head poking out of the egg); they have the same father as the above two so.....

Thanks again
B.

I really hope those are very old photos of the parents...

 

[BarryK]

Yeah those are from when they were about 5-6 months - they're about 18 months now

Are they kept together?
