Carol,

That animal is hands-down spectacular!!! I used to work with candy canes and would love to again.

P.S. Do you have Walter Smith’s website address and/or email so I can get in touch with him about those? Also,what do Frank Pinello’s “super” candy canes that you mentioned look like? Does he have a website or pics posted somewhere that I could check out? Thanks again!

John

Well, I guess you know my answer regarding Walter Smith. I am just glad I at least have some nice snakes of his to keep his hard work going! I have a Miami, the Candy Cane and a newly aquired wonderful Hypo Miami. Sorry, Frank does not have a website and I don't know if he has pics posted anywhere. He used to have some in the kingsnake photo gallery under the user name "Pinello" but I don't know if they are still there. He has been scaleing his collection back as well.

Carol,

Yeah, I saw Walters post when I went back looking for your response. What a bummer! I have to agree with one person who posted about it being in a person's blood and hopefully he'll be back. That very thing happened to me. Will you have any red and white candy cane corns like the one you posted a couple of days ago, for sale next season? If so, I'm interested in talking to you about buying some. Let me know at your convienence. I'm looking for high quality candys exactly like the one you posted, that female is gorgeous! You said she's 2 years old now and looks the same as in the picture?! That's awesome.

Well, I do have a great Miami male het Candy Cane from Walter so paired up with this female, they could make some great babies. However, I am not sure if she will make breeding size this year. She may, she may not. I am just extra careful with her because I don't want to loose her. Also, like I said before, I had planned to use her in my Candy Cane Motley Project. My plans for her were to breed her with my Miami Motley male to get nice Miamis het motley and candy cane. I guess IF she gets big enough this year and IF my male Miami Motley does NOT get big enough, then I will breed her with the Miami het CC from Walter and I will have some CC's available. I guess the best way to tell is to drop me an email around breeding season, or check back here for some corn porn pics. Thanks,

Great! Thanks Carol, I'll check back with you around prime time and hopefully she'll make it to size and something will happen.
