    corn genetics question

    ok so im new to the corn world as my previous post in this secton shows. now I know that in boas and balls when you have something that is hypo the shed is completely pattenless. I purchased 1.1 lavendars het patternless and 1.1 butter motleys. i'm guessing with corns its not uncommon to get mystery hets for this and that but all four have shed now and not one of them has pattern on the shed. each one is completely see through with no design what so ever. Guess my question is... are all corns that way or did the breeder forget to mention they were hypo? im not sure on how much that would add to the value but even without the hypo I got a deal on them I think lol others have said i didnt do bad at all on them. thanks for any input.

    My snakes don't leave any pattern on their shed except for my charcoal, and that isn't a whole lot. Your butters have amel in them, which gets rid of all the black pigment, so there shouldn't be anything on the shed. The lavenders are just really light, so they might not show up either especially as hatchlings.
    Corns:
    0.0.1 Normal; 0.1.0 Amel Motley
    1.0.0 Butter Motley; 0.1.0 Charcoal

    Re: corn genetics question

    With a corn snake, the hypo gene makes them BRIGHT. It makes their colors pop. With ball pythons, it makes them dull and washed out. They are completely different and yet, they are called the same thing.

    I only have one corn snake who leaves a pattern on his shed and he's an anery motley...so a black snake. I usually see some black on his sheds. Everyone else' sheds are clear...even my hypo lavender
