They do look a little like corn snakes and were in the same genus previously. They were also called "Chinese corn snakes" at one time when being imported. They do also have potential for some types of hobbyists; but they don't handle like corn snakes, don't have any morphs, yet, and aren't quite as easy in the husbandry.

There are a lot of great reasons to like them, however. Small size, very hardy, easy to raise, nice looks, interesting behaviors, variability, etc...


>>Congratulations on those they are beautiful! Their heads look so much like cornsnakes! I'm surprised they have not become more popular than they are, I think they have great potential. When I get back on my feet financially I will have to look you up and get some for sure. Thanks for the pics.
