Is it true that Okeetees....

Tigergenesis Sep 07, 2004 09:22 AM

are longer and thicker than other corns? If so, I'm wondering what their average adult length is?

Thanks!

I have heard that also but can't substantiate it from the ones I own.
My '02 okeetee from SMR is approximately the same size as my other '02 snakes.
And my three late '03 okeetees are approximately the same size as my other snakes the same age so from my "vast" experience of four okeetees...lol, I would have to say I don't see a difference.

I got some new ones...from Haphazard Road...Jasper county i guess.............they are old enough to be over 4 foot....they are about 3...3 1/2 maybe....and didn't breed.......none of them.........slower than the others.....

odd.......

I do have big ones and I do have smaller ones...

technically they are all about normal........

I might add that they are much more prone to bite, at least mine are, anyone else notice this tendency?
