anyone else????

Unless someone knows something I do not, there are three RENO cities in the U.S. They are in the states of Nevada, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. Corn snakes are not found in any of those states, so the word RENO must have a significance other than locality. Since RENO, NV is one of the gambling hot spots in the U.S., perhaps the name implies that you are gambling if you buy one.

YOU KNOW HOW IT IS. LIKE MANY OF US, I PROBABLY HAVE, BUT DIDN'T DO BREEDING TRIALS TO PROVE IT OUT. I HAVE ANERY LAVENDERS AND HYPO IS IN THOSE FAMILY TREES. IT TAKES SO LONG TO PROVE OUT WHAT YOU HAVE. I'M SURE RICH Z HAS SOME BEAUTIFUL EXAMPLES OF THAT GENETIC COCKTAIL.

Thats kind of what I was thinking. Breeding the snake will be like pulling the lever at a slot machine. You have no idea what you'll end up with. You could also call it the Forrest Gump corn. It's like a box of chocolates, you never know what you'll get

Perhaps the seller meant revo corn which could be reverse okeetee. Just a shot in the dark.

you know, I was thinking that too.
Maybe just a mistake in meaning a reverse okeetee

Yeah,.....I'm guessing that more than likely has to be the case. I can't see the name "reno" being associated with a corn in the least.........I would think.....mystery solved..LOL!
