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 here to learn more/see adults.

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.
