What kind of Corn is this?

My friend's boss is trying to sell his two corn snakes, and I LOVE this one. He says it is a snow, but I just wanted to check with you guys and see what you thought.

Sorry for the crappy iphone pics, but it was what I had on me :D
He is selling this one for $80 and I am probably going to get it either way (don't know if it is male or female)

I'd say it's definitely a snow, but it's SUPER skinny. I'd be concerned that it might either be sick or have some sorta feeding issue. I'd say the price is fine for a snow of that size, but how thin it is is very concerning.

I agree it's some sort of snow, but it is very skinny.

yup it's a snow I have one :P

its a snow but isn't 80 a bit much? i mean last i remember you could get a baby at an expo for like $65

I agree about it being super skinny. It only gets fed a f/t mouse every 2 or 3 weeks :O If anything, I want to get it just to get it to a healthy size... I was shocked at how skinny it was. He has an albino he is selling too, unfortunately I am not able to take in both snakes at the moment, just the one.

Yup, definitely a snow, but a very pretty one actually... lots of yellow on her!! I love it!! :D

I also agree that he/she is very skinny though, poor thing. $80 isn't bad, but I would see if you could get him down to $70.

I don't know if it is a him or a her, either way I agree, gorgeous snake! That is a reason why I wanted to make sure he/she was a snow because I haven't seen very many with as much yellow as this one. Since I know the guy selling it I'll definitely try and talk him down price wise. It will probably be sometime this week. I'll let you guys know.

I only have a 10g on hand at the moment. Would it be okay to house it in there for a little while until I can get it a larger tank? I was thinking another 20L, I have my BP in one now and I think it would be an appropriate size for an adult corn as well.

Definitely!! The snow I rescued is very, very white, only a tiny bit of yellow on her "cheeks" and neck. Not that she's not pretty of course ;) but I have to say that the one you have there has the most yellow I've ever seen. I know it's not uncommon, but it's still beautiful!!

Yeah, a 10g should be alright for a temporary enclosure. He/she will be a little cramped in there, but it should be fine for a little while. A 20g is perfect, although I have my big creamsicle girl in a 30g... she's spoiled! :P

Alright, I'm a BP owner, so I'm still reading up on corn husbandry. What kind of substrate do you use? I use newspaper for my ball, but I'm aware that corns can like to burrow, so I was thinking of aspen bedding. Do they need/like two identical hides like ball pythons? Sorry for all the newbish questions, I just want to make sure I give the proper care to my future corn. I get all kinds of different information from different websites so I thought it couldn't hurt to ask. :D
