I thought I would see if there was any sort of combination of my current snakes that might be a worthwhile cross. Of course I'll only list those snakes that should be able to cross. No need to mention my single Boa, or my Jungle Carpet Python.

MALE SNAKES
Corn Snakes:
Normal Striped
Hurricane Snow Motley (possibly homozygous or heterozygous hypo)

King Snakes:
High White Cal King (poss het albino)
Aberrant Banded Cal King (poss het albino)
Goini (Blotched King)
Outer Banks King (small kink)
Florida King
Splendida (Desert King)--(only MAYBE a male...don't really know!)

Other male Snakes:
Black Rat poss het albino, brindle, and whitesided.
Jurassic Milk (pos het albino???)

Female Snakes:
Corn Snakes:
Ghost (het amel, motley)
Anery (het amel, hypo, motley)
Reverse Okeetee (also called flourescent)
Anery Stripe
Normal Het Motley (Poss homozygous or heterozygous hypo)

King Snakes:
Newport Phase cal king (dark brown/black with light cream yellow dots)
Desert Phase Cal King (VERY white bands)
Aberrant Banana Cal King (two of these, one is more aberrant striped, one is aberrant banded)
Outer Banks King
Florida King (two of these)
Splendida (it's a male or a female... I've narrowed it down that far!).
ARizona Mountain King
Apalachicola King (Two of these)

Other Snakes:
3 Black Rat snakes all possible het amel, whitesided, brindle

Some of the combinations I've considered:

Jurassic x Reverse Okeetee cornsnake
Jurassic x Apalachicola King
Jurassic x Outer Banks (if the male outerbanks won't breed, or only throws kinked offspring like himself)
(if the male outerbanks WILL breed...)
Outer Banks x Apalachicola (I think this would be cool)
Outer Banks x Splendida (probably only if the splendida is a female)
Cal King x Splendida

Anyway, thoughts always appreciated.

I would take a male FL king, and a female Black Rat and blend them with 2 shots of Capt. Morgan Spiced Rum!

good luck!

Jurassic Milk x Reverse Okeetee (should result in some beautiful babies)
Jurassic Milk x Blotched King (the male Blotched passed away)
Jurassic Milk x Outer Banks (she probably won't be big enough until the following year)

Perhaps if I give them all a nice Rum n Coke they won't notice that their partners are slightly different than they would usually slither home with.

I don't think I'll try any other odd combinations. I figure that the first thing I need to do is start with what I already have, namely the Jurassic, who might be less discriminating. Then the key will be to see if the other snakes will be less discriminating... though I could get the female corn tuned by introduction to a male corn.

If I get a male blotched king, I plan an OUter Banks x Blotched combo to see what I get.
