Like most reptiles, Corn Snakes never stop growing. They just get to a point where their growth becomes so slow that it's barely noticeable. So you will never have a record for the world's smallest Corn Snake, or any specific species of reptile.

The six foot record Corn Snake was a wild-caught example. Morphs tend to have an overall smaller average size than wild types. Though it's useful to keep in mind that Corn Snakes have a wide range and within that range are populations with characteristics.

One of those characterstics can be a smaller than average size. Miami Corns and Keys Corns are examples of this. This 2010 male Alabama Corn from wild-caught parents is only 30 inches long.
