An Amel het Anery.

That gives you the chance of the following:

Normal het anery and amel
Amel het anery
Anery het amel
Snow

Nothing, the corn market is flooded, people cannot give them away.

Fixx does have a point. I just gave the answer that'll get the best percentages of the widest variety of hatchlings, which gives you a chance to sell babies that are *cheap* - you might have to sell them to shops, though. You'd also get results with ultramel anery, but the more expensive a baby is, the fewer buyers there are for it.

If you aren't breeding to keep at least one of the babies yourself, ask yourself if you REALLY need to breed the snake. You won't make much money (if any) breeding a single pair of corn snakes - maybe enough to pay for a couple months' feeding bills.

That's why, although I have five female corns of breeding age, who will be up to weight next year to breed, I will be breeding a maximum of three of them. Only those three will produce animals I want to keep for myself.
