I am looking for 5 pairs of baby-subadult cornsnakes. Each pair a different morph! What do you think would be the best morphs to go with?? Thanks for time and sorry if this seems like a wanted ad!!! Its not meant to be!!

i would at least go with 1.1 ghosts if not striped ghosts. that way you have multiple recessive genes in one pair of snakes. the next i would say blood reds(diffused) with hets for a pattern variation like motley and possible color hets
other than that the best advise i can give is just buy what you like youre the one who has to look at them all the time just do it to enjoy it

hybrid breeders association
1.1 puebladurans
1.1 sinacorns
1.1 hypo corns
1.1 crimson corns
1.1 striped ghosts
1.1 kenyan sand boas
1.1 mbk
1.1 albino corns
1.1 childrens python
1.3 ghost corns
1.0 butter
1.0 snow corns
1.0 jurassic milk
1.0 house snake
0.1 anery pueblacorn
0.1 bloodred
0.1 eastern milk (eatin pinks)
0.1 striped albino corn
0.1 albino nelsons
0.1 anery motley
0.1 normal corn het hypo,anery
0.1 hypo tang hondo
0.1 rosy boa

My best advice to you would be....
1. Don't start a breeding colony of corns expecting to make much money...

2. Don't get 5.5 go with something more like 4.6 because you don't really need one male per female.

3. Get something you like because you won't strike it rich and you're the one who will be taking care of them.

Over the decades the best okeetees have held their value better than most-and to me there is no more beautiful corn anywhere!

The avalanche has already started-it is too late for the pebbles to vote....

OK, to me okeetees are by far the nicest locale corn. Even if you include the bloodred as a locale. The colors and pattern just make a perfect compesition for a snake. That said nice Abbotts have to be the best line bred morph? If you want to use that label.

I want some so bad. But hard to find locally so I can see them.

The pictures are just killing me SO STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

j/k, super duper snakes.

Well I'm not really looking into striking it rich. I just like a variety and some beautiful snakes. I think I'll stick to Ball Pythons to making money. The 4.6 idea is a good idea but genetics and me do not get along. I was just wondering...wanted to see some nice morphs. And I have got some good tips from you guys so thanks again!

snow bred to a hypo stripe will give you (quad hets) babies het for snow stripe and snow's, amel stripe and amel's, ghost stripe and ghost's, anery stripe and anery's. Not a bad assortment for only two breeders. Just think about a clutch with all those different hatchlings if you breed the offspring together.

I agree you do not need 5.5. I'll just list a few top morphs to consider.

Striped Butters
Calicos.
Pied Sided anything.
Bloodreds.
Northern Copperhead Anery
Vanishing patterns

Any given day that list will change ored with me. But I think nice calicos may be tops for me?

Good luck

This is the pic I saw, but source looks like it came from Don S?

Banded Ghost?

Common names can get confusing. I've said this a lot, I generally do not like gray snakes. Tat one I thought looked cool.

I wouldn't call my snake or the others a "Northern Copperhead" because that just doesn't fit in my opinion, but here is a new little guy I got from South Mountain. He is a banded Aner from Don's Hypo Miami line, however, that line isn't supposed to have Aner in it, so we will have to breed him out with the type A and B to see what happens. Hopefully breeding him to the het female will produce more and an increased level of banding and more like him. Just felt it fit this discussion.

If anyone is interested, I will try and get a better shot from the side, the banding shows up much better, I just really suck at taking photos with a digital camera.

Hey I suck at photography, but at least you get the idea of the banding look even though it is blurry. The dorsal photo just doesn't relay that.
