Yellow x Red cross?

lcsrescue Sep 27, 2010 11:14 PM

Anyone ever done this? I'm asking because I think I have one. If so does it have a name? I can post pictures if anyone is interested to see him.

Here he is, in my humble opinion he is one of the best looking corn hybrids I've ever seen.......of course I may be biased because he is mine lol.

What's the history on this cross? Almost looks like a pure Corn Snake.

It does look more like a normal WC corn to me. The color and pattern fit with the exception of lacking head pattern. Otherwise I would say just a mature WC or normal morph cornsnake. Not uncommon for the normal morphs to darken with melanin with age and also develop the faint stripe patterning.

I should have taken better pictures, his pattern is squared on top, with no side patterns except the two lines on each side. I'll try to get some better ones.

Almost 20 years ago I had some that were 25% yellow and 75% red gorgeous animals. I would breed it back to a red. But find a stunning mate for it. The animals I had still had the faint black stripes that the yellows were known for and 3 of the 5 that I had developed purple on them. Yes purple that you could see from 5 feet away, not saying you will have the same results. I wish I would have kept them.
