New here, new corn owner. Morph?

[Ripsaw642]

I currently have two corn snakes, picked them up about a month ago. First one im pretty sure is a Blood red stripe, second one I'm thinking is a hypo blood red?


I'm trying to figure out my signature
One other thing, they're both on dimmers right now, temps have to be closely monitored. Has anyone got experience with the Jumpstart seedling thermostats? I'm going to get a herpstat eventually, but it's not affordable right now. The jumpstart is however, and if it's good enough i'll buy 2 and use them as backups when i get a herpstat.

I can't help you with the morphs, but that first picture is adorable!

(looks enviously) Pretty! How old are these guys? I think better bloodreds show pattern less . And it's something they grow into - they start out looking sort of like a weird normal color as babies.

I have one who shows the saddles like that, though not as much, but I think he may be older...
I don't know how to judge if either one is hypo, but they look dark enough that they may not be. Maybe Venus is a motley?

And I agree with The Cat, Scarlett's pic is wonderful - great image!

Very pretty! Not sure the second one is hypo, though.

Thanks for the replies. Not sure on exact age. I don't think i ever asked, but I'll try to find out. Scarlett was 145g last time I weighed them, and venus at 69g. I just fed Venus her first rat, so they are both on rats now(fuzzies and pinks, respectively). I switched them because i found a reliable source and they're quite a good price. Any opinions on the thermostat? Link: http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B000NZZG3S/ref=gno_cart_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB

Oooh, welcome to another Scarlett owner!

I just went to Home Depot two days ago and picked up a $12 dimmer, I plugged the UTH in the plug and the other end into the socket. The temp, when the dimmer was at full strength, bumped up to 100 degrees, at about 3/4 it is at a perfect 85. I have one large UTH between two tanks, each with its own thermometer. Scarlett prefers the cooler end of her viv, Gus likes being in the hide over the UTH.

Beautiful babies!
