    Leucistic Corn ???
    Well I was looking around a local pet store/breeder and came up with this fellow. It is listed as a Leucistic Corn Snake but as long as I know there is no such thing.

    It is surely not a blizzard, opal or snow cause it has black eyes.

    Can you help me?

    Leucistic corns don't exist, at least not that anyone knows of. Probably a leucistic rat snake.

    Or a leucistic hybrid between the corn and rat

    The breeder is selling it to me for 93$. Do you think it is a good deal? Remember I am in Portugal and it is really hard to find rat snakes or hybrids. Even a normal corn is sold by an average of 100$.

    If you like it, I'd say go for it. Although it's probably not a corn (or at least not full corn because leucism doesn't exist with them as far as we know) it's still a cool-looking snake. Again, my bet is on that it's a rat snake because there are quite a few leucistic rats, although I'm no colubrid expert so I can't just tell you by the picture.

    It's all a personal decision. If snakes like corns have that kind of value where you are, I'd guess that this would be a steal anyways :)
