so here is the deal. i took 2 of my nephews to their first show this weekend and we are walkin around the show not lookin to buy anymore animals this year and i come up to a table that a nice young woman is at and im lookin at her snakes and every single one was 15 bucks. she had some snows and some okeetee's a few albinos and such and then i see these weird lookin corns and i was pretty sure i new what they were but i asked her what genetics were behind them. she said the parents were het butters!
so she then preceeded to say she had no idea what these things were that popped out of the clutch. so i sexed them out and the 2 best were females and the one i didnt like was the only male.
so i asked her what she would knock off if i bought these 3 animals. she said 10 bucks!!! so 3 snakes 15$ each minus 10 bucks = 35 dollers total. so i get home check some pics and prices and walked home with 2 female butter motley corns and a male poss. het for 35 bucks total.
i know i sort of took advantage of her but she had them marked that price regardless its not my fault she had no idea of what she had....
by the way butter motleys go for between 75 and a hundred bucks each!!!! both females i would of gladly spent a hundred dollers on

Some guy and his very attractive lady friend were selling hatchling corns in Raliegh at $15.00 each. He had amels, normals, zig zag, stripe, hets, cand cake, okeetee phase, reverse okeetee, butter, aners, carmels, tons of stuff and all for $15.00.

Said money didn't matter as far as they went, he just bred them and placed them on the table, maybe they ate or not, but it was up to you to get them going and see what traits they carried, all for $15.00 each. My son (4yrs) picked out his first corn, a candy cane for ....you guessed it $15.00

And did it eat?

yes, actually a little hog. Has eaten several meals now.

Good. I wouldn't personally buy anything that isn't guaranteed feeding for myself. Had too many non feeders this season as it is. They were just lucky I don't keep any kingsnakes! They try your patience after the first 5 weeks!
