    Blizzard Corn or Snow Cal King?
    Hey everyone,

    My girlfriend really wants to get a colubrid, and she has it narrowed down to either a blizzard corn, a snow cal king or a mexi black king. Between the blizzard corn and the snow cal king, which do you think will be whiter and have less/no pattern into adulthood? If you have either one, please post pics of adults or sub-adults that may have changed color a little since they were hatchlings.

    Thanks a lot

    I vote corn.

    I love the black milks as stated above....however corns seem to stay pretty calm for handling where kings and milks are usually a bit more, well, crazy.....LOL

    That would be the only ratsnake more spastic than the milks and kings.....rofl

    I love the lucy rats though, just hate the attitude that 90% have.

    The blizzard would have more white than a snow cal king.

    Blizzard might only have a thin yellow stripe, but the king would have speckles all over most likely. The corn would be whiter. :)

    That, and corns are just...nicer. :D

    My albino cal king is all white except for a teeny tiny yellow stripe that goes straight down the back, but geez hes a mean bugger - I would go for a corn.
