A few clutches of 2008 Cornsnakes are incubating now, and we expect to list them beginning the last week of July. Additional specimens will continue to appear here throughout the summer and fall, as they become available.


Rocky Mountain Reptile Expo
He's back! Our favorite internet reptile shopper is once again banging his head on the desk out of frustration. If you feel the same way and want to see a wide selection of captive-bred herps, meet with the breeders, or just buy without having to pay shipping costs, visit the Rocky Mountain reptile Expo. Open Saturday, May 10 from 10:00AM-5:00PM at the Denver merchandise Mart located just east of I-25 on the north side of 58th Street. Click here to visit the show website for a map or more info.

One of us will be there with a selection of our specimens for sale. As always, display space is limited and we will not be able to bring everything we have for sale on our website. Please let us know if there are specific specimens you'd like to see and we'll do our best. But the only way to be certain you'll get the specimen you desire is to pre-pay for the order in advance. Pre-paid orders will be held and delivered to the show at no extra charge.

        See you there!

Opal Motley Cornsnakes
Amelanism, Lavender & Motley. Opals are really neat snakes, but when lightened with the Motley trait they are actually a bit less impressive than you would think. However, they are still very rare and much needed genetically for future combinations. Click here to learn more/see adults.

Cinnamon Motley Cornsnakes (E. g. guttata x E. g. meahllmorum)
Hypomelanistic and Motley. Our Cinnamons are attractive enough, but when when the Motley pattern is applied the result is astonishing!
