Morph ID?

    Morph ID?
    I know this is near-useless without pics, but I figured I'd try. Today I stopped in at my local pet shop for bedding, and this HUGE corn had just been brought in as a surrender/adoption. The guy said she was close to 6' in length (and looking at her, I'd just about believe it), assuming female. She was light and dark grey, with round yellow spots near the belly. Her patterning was fairly nondescript, mostly just regular stripes.

    I know I've seen similar coloring on corns before, it seems like a fairly common morph I think. My phone is crap and can't upload pics. I'm going back on Friday with my bestie, who'd been thinking about getting a corn. If she's still there we'll give her a better looking-over, and maybe bring her home. She seemed well-cared for, the previous owner brought her in with her setup, a large-ish (20-30 gal) glass aquarium with deep bedding and lots of hides and decorations.

    6' corn sounds fun!
    Wish you could get those pics uploaded.
    Well let us know if your able to give her a good home! :gj:

    Yeah, my guess would be possible Anery, though without pics it's too hard to guess for sure. ;)

    Thanks for the link, Daybreaker! Anery is looking right. She was a bit paler than those examples, but that could have more to do with her size/age. I'm seriously fighting the urge to just go buy her now - my sister is away at college so I could use her room for QT until my bestie can come over and take the snake.

    I'm definitely agreeing with anery, looking at the reference pics. Those yellow spots on her sides are still pretty awesome though. For the size reference I'm 5'2 and a fully grown adult, lol, girly is huuuuuge. She'll end up staying with my friend Devin, who'd been wanting a corn anyway, and I know he'll take good care of her (and be well-fed, considering I produce the rats he feeds his snakes! :D) I want to get her probed at some point, if she really is a female I'll be pretty stoked.

    To be honest, based on its head, it doesn't even look like a corn to me...I could be wrong, but corns have very distinct head patterns.

    Yeah, the way her head's a little faded seemed odd but so far everything else looks corn to me. My breeder friend Abby has a buddy who's majorly into corns, so I'm planning on passing these pics along to see if I can get any more definitive answer from him.
