    New corn
    I just got this corn snake a few days ago... it is about 4 years old and 3.5 feet long... they think it is a girl
    I was wondering if any one could tell me what morph/ kind of corn this is? I am not able to take a pic of her belly but she has yellow up close to the head and like a red brick pattern down the other half.

    She looks just like my albino corn snake. Down to the slight yellowing on the sides and red eyes

    Amel, or CandyCane with that amount of white. :) What do you think, Matt? :D

    On my monitor, it doesn't look white enough to call it a candycane.

    Just in case anyone is confused by the "different" answers on this thread so far, albino and amel or amelanistic are just 2 different words for the same thing. Sometimes it is also called red albino. I see albino or red albino more at pet stores or with people that don't know much about snakes, and amel more on the snake forums and at reptile shows.

    Also, candycane is just a selectively bred amel to be as close to pure white inbetween the red spots as possible.

    I'm saying Amel, since my corn is Amel and is basically a mirror image when it comes to coloring.

    I have to say she is so friendly I am amazed. Most of my other snakes take a long time to settle down and like watch a movie with me... I have had her for just over 5 days today and last night she watched a whole movie on my shoulders and I had to chase her only once! I hope to breed one day!
