I went to a reptile show in Portland yesterday. I'd honestly gone hoping to find a rainbow boa that I liked, but there were a grand total of four of them at the entire event, all overpriced and none of them appealing to me.
I was so disappointed about that, but then I was just randomly looking at some corn snakes, and I saw this little guy! He's apparently a year old but a little runty, he was a bad eater the year before, but is now finally over being picky, or so I'm told. He was $25, which sounded like an eminently reasonable price for a small yearling corn snake to me, and I think he was the very prettiest one on the whole table. The pastel colors that seem to be the most common are nice, but I really like something a little bolder and with more variety.
I know jack all about corn snakes, but I keep a ball python already with no trouble at all, and I've been told many times that corns are even easier, so I'm not too worried. I've read up on a few care sheets, and I expect to have a full setup for the little guy completed by tomorrow.
As far as I know he's just a very striking normal and not a morph at all, but that's just from my flipping through a few pages of photos on line, I'm not anything like an expert.
