This is of course one of Don's Pied sided Bloodreds.
Corns don't come much finer than these.

Nice Rob..Can we see a complete body shot...
What are the genetics behind this animal.
Most of the "paradox" and "pied" corns prove to
be non genetic. Thanks mike

I've been asking my old college genetics proffesor about this. If a snake or animal has marking it is genetic. But it may not be a trait that is passed. Or more likely such an off combination of things we do not understand it is not passed. But it is possible. I would hate to think someone has:: for example "white sided corns" They try to mate 2 corns, and both are WS'd, and no WS'd babies. So they stop. It may be more complicated, or just a wrong match of male and females. I personally do not have the patience for multi generation mutations, or the chance. But I praise those who stick with it. Please do not stop if the 1st generation does not produces what you want. Just my thoughts.

Nice
i new it would be to long before the white sided trait showed up in cornsnake's.
You can even see the cut line of where the trait should stop.

Cool.
