Yes I want OPINIONS....lol

look at this picture and give me your opinions.

what do YOU think this is.

Do you think it is a mix expressing amelanism
what possible mix do you see
Do you think it is a pure animal expressinag amelanism or albinism.
what possible pure species do you see?

when I get some good opinions I will tell you two things.
What I was told it is
and what I think it is.

maybe beteen your opinions and mine we can come up with valid arguments as to what it probably is.

i see a pure amel corn snake. If there is any emoryi in there, i would guess it is very minimal

thanks

In '03 when he was sent to me he was sent as a "mean ass creamsicle"

I never really had any reason to doubt the fact that it wasn't pure corn. In person there is definitely a look that says mix. At least to me anyway.

It just always seemed to me to look more like the possibility or grey rat as opposed to emoryi.
Just speculation.

As far as breedings and labeling have been concerned I went with what I was told...creamsicle.

His ofsrping with cream females have always been nice orange creams with a slight touch of frosting.

To me the "frosting" and the saddle shape just seemed "greyish"

I asked Don S. the same question after I posted here and he didn't really see the grey rat markers I was seeing but he did see typical creamsicle.

That's good enough for me.

just wondering if anyone else saw what I did.

GUESS NOT...lol

Jimmy, it has colors kind of like an orange candycane corn imho, but it looks thick like an emoryi. Could it be expressing amel and hypo at the same time? It mainly makes me think of a creamsicle (guttata x emoryi) with more orange than usual.

Looking forward to the answers!

My guess would be it's either a very sharp Candy Cane Corn, or an amelanistic Grey Rat x Corn hybrid.
