Thanks guys. I wasn't expecting a lot of activity here, but I still want to be a part of it and contribute.

I really like this snake. When he was a juvie he was very snappy and had the classic yellow rat attitude. I'd get bit every time I opened his enclosure. But as he's gotten older he has really mellowed out and now has the temperment of a typical corn snake. He's become very mellow and easy to work with.

I really like the look he has too. I like the way that the yellow rat stripes run right on top of the almost motley looking corn pattern he's sporting. He litterally shows both the corn traits and the yellow rat traits and doesn't look like some alien thing from the X Files. I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of babies he can produce.

I got him from a friend of mine when he was just a hatchling. The way I understand it is that he changed hands a couple of times before I ended up with him so I have no idea who produced him.

I don't know of anyone else who has one of these. I know that he had to have clutch mates but, where are they? I've always thought of him as pretty special because I don't know of any others. I think that he'll be a fine patriarch to my hybrid lines.
