Snow White the Snow Corn

So this is Snow White or Snowy, I believe her colour makes her a snow, please correct me if I'm wrong.
Snowy was found in a single 100gal tank with a milksnake and a boa constrictor after a police raid took place on an illegal grow op. As apprently the cops are not required to inform anyone of live animals left behind, the snakes were left in a mite infestation from your worst nightmare and without heat or water for a week before the SPCA could help deal with the situation.
Sadly the milksnake didn't make it but snowy is looking lovely and Loki my red tail is amazing.
So now I'm hooked on snakes ^o^
Looking for a pretty boy for her one day, but what I'd really love is to know her history if anyone thinks she looks familiar.

Had her for a year next month, she's a sweet lady snake.
 
She's gorgeous and very healthy looking. You obviously take very good care of her. I would guess she is a snow because of the amount of yellow on her. What color boyfriend do you plan for her?
 
@Dustilyn
I'd like another snow to pair but I'm thinking about an anery or ghost, I would love any advice on the subject, I've been caught up with the Boa more then the Corn as she needed more work.
But I would love to give her the chance of making some beautiful babies I just need to read more about it beforehand, would be interested in a breeder who wants to provide the male and take some of the clutch, would like to try for a blizard or other white snakes.
 
First off, congratulations on the rescues. Looking good. As for breeding your snow, you have two known genes to work with. She is homozygous for both anery and amel. So breeding her to an Anery OR Ghost would produce all anery babies. As Ghost is simply a hypo anery. My advice, for what it's worth, is find a male snow to breed her to. Anerys don't sell as easily as snows. Best of luck! And I have to say, very pretty snake. Snows might be a common morph but are still a favorite in my book.
 
Thank you Russell for the advice, I had my heart set on a finding another snow to make the pair, a breeder has been trying to sell me a ghost to pair her with but I told them I needed to think about it more. So I'm glad I did, I would love any baby snakes she made, I love anerys, but I would rather plan for a great paring rather then just a good one. I really need to read up more on breeding my corn beforehand, she is such a sweetheart,
If anyone has any website or book recommendations on corn breeding and color combo genetic pairing that I can read up on it would be wonderful of you to post me the links.
Thank you
Baby Snakes are so cute *u*
 
Have you picked up a copy of Kathy Love's book, the Cornsnake Manual? Most chain pet stores seem to carry it. It has very good information on corn snake breeding and about genetics.

As for online, you can google corn snakes and find many various websites on them. There is also this gene calculator that should help you out.

Wish you weren't in canada. I have a flighty, but rather handsome, snow that might make a good mate for her. Feren's got peachier saddles than your girl, so you'd get some variety in the babies, too. Oh well.

She's a really lucky snake to have you taking care of her. She looks great!
 
Pretty :) I have a male snow (well not confirmed but that's what I was told) I don't think I would try to mate him but if I lived close to you it could always be a possibility

Your snake looks so healthy and pretty!
 
Thank you for the kind stud offers, but I ended up finding a blizzard corn who needed a home. That was about 4 months ago and just yesterday I confirmed that Snow White has eggs in her, So Cool!
Horrible timing though as I'm having to move, I think she will be due in 2-3 weeks but this is my first time so I'm just hoping she will be ok.
Gave her a nice plastic snap lid container filled with damp moss over her heat pad and she's found it.
