hi this my first post on here and wanted to share our corn we got from the expo on th 22 of oct. here in puyallup wa.
we got her for $10.00 she was a purchas for my son. not sure what kind of corn she is . the lady that sold her to us didnt say much. but the label on the container said het snow. i did a little reseach and came up with a miami phase that looks a lot like ours. she is eating pinkies like a pig and never sits still when we pull her out of her tank. it doesnt matter to us what she is. but what ever input we can get thanx

First let me welcome you to this forum.
Your snake looks like a "Normal" corn to me. If the info on the container said het snow than you have the potential to get snows from him/her if you breed it.
Hope this helps..

Welcome...
I would say your little snake is a normal.
In my opinion there is nothing normal about them.
I prefer "natural". Sounds better and has no negative connotations.
Het snow means it is het anery het amel.
Let's just say you were to breed it to another normal het anery het amel (snow) you would/should/could get normals, amels, anerys and snows.

Very nice snake. You got a smokin' deal.

When you say "eating pinkies like a pig", I hope you're only feeding one every 7-10 days. You know how to setup and care for it (heat/cool sides, etc)?

Welcome!

yes we only feed one pinky every 7 days and she is in a 5 gal tank right now. tell she gets bigger then we will move her to a 20 to 30 long

Het snow means it is double het amel and anery (posseses genes to produce both) which is EXACTLY what I have been looking for for several months. Some people have all the luck! Jerk I'm just kidding. Welcome to the wonderfull world of snakes!
