The best snake to breed with a "Jungle" King/Corn cross is probably another "Jungle"... that way you would hopefully retain the hybrid look and ensure that the animals cannot be mistaken for pure corn or king.

Breeding a hybrid to a corn will increase the percentage of corn genes (and probably the corn appearance) of the hybrid offspring.

I'd breed it to another jungle as the good thing about jungles is that they don't look like corns or kings and if you breed it to a corn then the babies will look more like corns and to a king then more like a king.

The other option ist o breed your normal jungle(if thats what you got), to an amel jungle, for jungles het amel.

That way you get to keep two visually different jungles, and the offspring together would throw out some amel ones too

then its just the other way round, you could put it to a normal jungle for normal jungles het amel, or to another amel for similar offspring

theres also a jungle to another corn for super corns(but ive never seen one), or theres the long term possibilitys of say the amel jungle back into another line of corns(say lavender or bloodred), and their offspring back together for some different morph jungles?

you wouldn't get much from the offspring, but a pair of offspring bred back together could have interesting results

Its a brave person that puts a Bloodred het hypo in with something with Kingsnake genes!!

I hope you all know what you're doing. I was offered a loan of a female albino cali king to put with my male amel corn last year, but politely turned the offer down cos neither of us had tried hybridising before.
