Classic Cornsnakes
These are typical corns, with lots of orange and red. The bellies are
heavily marked with black and white checkering. Many will be heterozygous
for other traits. Such specimens may be priced higher. In our opinion, there
is no better pet snake than a Cornsnake. Click

Ultra Hypo is one of the newest mutations on the market. Its' allele shares the same

allele, the snake takes on an appearance ranging from intermediate to that of the Ultra Hypo! This genetic
combination is known as the Ultramel cornsnake. Most we produce will be heterozygous for additional traits and may be
priced higher accordingly. Click

Hypo Lavender Motley Cornsnakes
Hypomelanism, Lavender & Motley.
Hypo Lavenders are lovely snakes and the motley
pattern further lightens and adds a unique look to them. We used some
extremely light hypo corns to create these, and when both lavender and
motley are added, the result is stunning. Many appear at first glance to be
Opal Motleys, but those dark ruby colored eyes give them away! Click

combination is known as the Ultramel cornsnake. All ours have been very

What do all these numbers and stuff mean? |
|
|
|
The description of each specimen is followed by the sex
of the specimen, it's date of birth, a stock number identifying the specimen,
and the selling price. Photos are of the exact specimen listed, are taken inside
a standard 16oz deli cup for size comparison, and are updated
monthly on average.
Understanding our stock numbers may prove helpful in identifying unrelated
specimens:
F021-01M
indicates a 2006 hatching (we started this code in 2001 with 'A',
2002 is 'B' and so on).
F021-01M
indicates the clutch number for that year, and thus all specimens listed
as F021- are from the same clutch.
F021-01M
indicates this is the first male from that clutch. F021-03F
would the third female from that clutch.
CB - Captive Bred, usually followed by year of
birth. Hatched or born from parents kept in captivity.
CH - Captive Hatched, usually followed by year of
birth. Hatched or born from a gravid wild-caught female.
WC - Wild-Caught. While all of our stock is produced
here, some of it is produced from wild-caught adults that we maintain. We will occasionally
sell some of the breeder animals as surplus.
LTC - Long Term Captive, usually followed by year of
capture. Applies only to WC animals,
indicates they have been maintained for a long period in captivity and are very
well established.
50%, 66%, 100% - Percentage of likelihood the specimen is heterozygous
for the listed trait.
