Default Corns for sale

Having to size down collection to make room for forth coming snakes.

I am open to offers on all snakes.

Female may 05 Creamsicle 22". Beautiful girl, fully hand tame and eatin 2 large pinkies a week.

Male june 04 Chocolate 40 - 45". The man of the house, eats 1 large mouse a week, feels at home on the sofa.

Male april 06 Sunglow ( cleverly disguised as an amel ) his father was a sunglow and he should loose his white as he grows but we'll see. he eats 2 pinkies a week but he's still just a little fella at 13".

Make me an offer, i can only say no, collection preferred

Any minimum prices for when i get Nigels @£100 !!!!
i'm seriously intrested ...... what are chocolates sometimes mistaken for?
or argued to be if not chocolate?
The male sunglow .... would he be priced as amel ... given the risk?
The female creams' ... if outcrossed back to pure corn ... could she be classed as an amel mother after 1 generation?
prices would help .... cheers ..... Ed

Not really any young sold from a creamsicle should be sold as creamsicle This is needed to keep pure corns. I breed a creamsicle female to a snow this year half the clutch looked like normal creamsicle and the other half looked amel but i sold all as creamsicles. Its important that hybrids are correctly named for future breeding

I have never heard of Chocolate either ???

agree on creams, didnt see that comment, they will never be pure corns and as such can affect breeding patterns and other morphs so need to be sold as creamsicles indefinatley or hybrids at least

yep, basically its thought that a chocolate corn is not a pure corn, but is a hybrid from something..

same as amel corns X rats make creamsicles...

maybe caramel corns X rats make chocolate

who knows?? unfortunately, the parentage of the snakes bought was not ascertained by the buyer, when he bought them in the first place.. so that information is lost to us.

that chocolate came from sue nelson, as far as i am aware it was just an unusual colour thrown out from a pair of pure corns, i dont recall the morphs.
as for the chocolate story, theres plenty of theories over it, the ones nerys continually refers to came from paul dowlthwaite from brighton... i bought them as chocolates and therefor sold the excess ones as the same.
i dont feel there is any further info i can pass on this subject.
so let the poor seller sell her corns now.
