Okeetee is not a morph as such, but a naturally occuring "normal" but from a specific localised population. These are very beautiful looking natural animals and quite hard to come by these days.
If you are lucky enough to find one (I actually saw one for sale last year in my local reptile shop and was sorely tempted - but no more snakes!:blush please don't waste its genes by breeding it with any old mongrel corn!
Source another, and bring these gorgeous snakes back into the hobby once again. :2thumb:

 

You calling my beautiful boy a mongrel?? ;-)

Don't take it personally, but all these corn morphs are not a patch on the natural locality specimens of old.
You don't have to agree. :blush::whistling2:

 

So what are the natural colors? Do you have pics etc? I'm a newbie to snake owning and he is my first one so he's my baby at the moment

Ever heard of google :whistling2:

 

Have a look at the "ian's vivariums" web site, and specifically "wild types".
Loads of pictures on there.: victory:

Along with all the mongrels you could wish for. :lol2:

 

As mentioned above best site for corn morphs and naturals:-

Guide to Cornsnake Morphs - Ians Vivarium

 

Abbotts Okeetee corn snakes are my favourite corn of all time, these are natural form, if I could find one I would get one no questions asked. As said above people have forgotten how amazing some of the natural "morphs" are and were when they use to be commonly available.

Some of the morphs have just become silly and destroyed the look of some snakes, look at the Royal python morphs as an example there is probably a handful of really pretty morphs, rest are either washed out or just look weird ..

 

Yes of course, I have looked at pictures but where I know little about them let alone morphs etc non of it means anything to me

I kept a number of corns when I started out, and only localities and anerythistic corns were available to the "general" reptile keeping public.
No other morphs at all for anyone without connections (not me.)

In the intervening years, the hobby corn has been hybridised with other snake species (rosy rat/kings/milks/gophers etc) as well as having natural oddities selectively line bred, to bring about other desireable colour and pattern mutations (extremely simple version :blush
Their successive offspring have been bred back into "normal" corns so many times, that the poor old corn snake as was, is almost a creature of the past. Mongrels. :lol2:

Corns are still brilliant snakes, and if anyone still loves 'em, that's ok with me.

 

Yeah I've looked/looking, what does single recessive and incomplete dominant etc mean? Also, are these UK names?

Thanks everyone

Nope they are not names of morphs. They relate to the characteristic of the genetics. I keep suggesting google, but really that would give you the information you need rather than have us explain the difference between recessive, dominant and co-dominant genes
