What did he look like as a hatchling? And did he turn out as expected & like his parents? (for anyone who doesn't know, corn snake colors evolve as they grow)
Thanks Bogertophis, this might be a long post.
The genes in this line are as follows:
Amel is a recessive gene that eliminates black pigment, amels are also called albinos.
Bloodred is a recessive gene that breaks up the edge of the normal saddle and blends them into the background , eliminates the ventral checkering, and modifies the headstamp.
Caramel is a recessive gene that gives a yellow brown or straw like color.
Cinder is a recessive gene that gives the animal an ashy grey look. The morph also breaks up the pattern some and when combined with sunkissed you get shatter corns.
Miami is a wild type or polygenetic trait that is usually red or orange saddles on a grey background.
Sunkissed is a recessive gene that modifies the head stamp and shape of the pattern. It also brightens colors such as yellows and reds. When mixed with caramel you get honey. As honey ages it just gets brighter.
Sire (FC) Miami, caramel het sunkissed, amel, cinder, blood red.

For comparison I also have a female clutch mate named Clarice. She is honey het bloodred PH amel, cinder. She didnt get the Miami look passed down, is only het for bloodred and has the single head stamp modifier.

Re: My Corn collection (pic heavy)
It's always the ones you look forward to breeding the most that gives you the hardest time. These two just wanted to cuddle. :mad:
