    Question about color morph......
    Hi everyone!! We just picked up a beautiful baby corn snake. What I am trying to decide though is what color morph it is.
    It has bright red diamonds, outlined very thinly in white, then the rest of the space between the diamonds is pink.
    Whatever he or she is, what a cute snake!!!!!!!
    Can anyone help?
    Thank you!!!!!!

    Hmm... sounds offhand like an Amel. Pictures would really help for better IDing, tho, since there are more than one corn morph with those colors. :)

    Congrats on the new friend, BTW. :D

    Does it look like any of these

    Top - Amel Motley
    Middle - Normal (but maybe something to her)
    Bottom - Amel

    FloridaHogs,
    Yes, she looks most like the top picture, bottom snake. I'm assuming that even though right now at less than 2 months old, her colors will change some as she gets older. (She hatched on August 18)
    I was reading on the web last night and from what I read it said her pink could become more orange.
    So I'm pretty sure you guys are right and she is a amel. I hadn't actually seen one before, I had no idea they were so pretty!!!
    I'll still post pics, I did get some taken last night.

    She is a WC rescue that was pulled out of someones yard a couple of years ago. I kept her because she looked SO different from any other wild types I have found in this area. She is finally up to breeding weight, so hopefully I will get to play around with her genetics and see what is going on now. Here are some better pics of her.
