I finally went to pick up my baby today, and you were right, he is about 12in. long, the lady on the phone told me he was 9in when she told me to put him in the 30 gal tank. also, he is a really odd color, she (the pet store lady) said he was a chocolate corn snake, but i cant find a picture of anything like hime. He is dark brown with darker brown spots, the spots are lined with light brown. thanks for all of your help, and i am really sorry if I sound extremely stupid

Congrats but are you sure it is a corn? It sounds like it may be a chocolate rat snake? If it has Spots and not saddles then it is definately a rat snake. Corn snakes have saddles and i have never seeb one w/ spots. Does the pattern look like the one pictured or does it really have spots?
