pictures do not do him justice. He is not the darkest bloodred I have seen, but he has great diffusion. Cant wait to watch him grow up and change. thanx for looking!

Very handsome little fella!!! Congrats!

Nice looking snake. I loved my blood red, but my amel. blood red was even cooler, I think. The color on that girl was amazing. I sold mine before getting a chance to breed them though.

thanx. of course here comes the sucky part. I bought him to breed with my 06 normal female (hets unknown). I got him in the mail yesterday, she escapes today. Needless to say Im not a happy camper. I hope she turns up, but I have a feeling she's gone already.. too many escape routes to outside. (my house is a fixer upper). I've set traps, and I'll keep looking... who knows.

Nice looking corn. I hope you find the female soon. I've only had one escape. It was during my daughter's Halloween party a couple of years ago. I wonder why the parents left so quick?

Beautiful looking bloodred you picked up there!!!

Hope you find your female soon!

I seem to follow you everywhere LD

Oh you've never seen them as hatcling/juvies?
It should be known that every corn morph changes color, what they are at birth is not going to be them as an adult. Granted with bloods the change is a lot more drastic.
Lemme see if I can procure some progression pics.

Aww how cute! Can't wait to see this handsome boy all grown up! I'm pretty excited about my little Anery corn... he's got some great blushing and markings. :)

Well that stinks that you can only edit your posts for 10 minutes after posting it...oh well.

THESE PICTURES WERE NOT TAKEN BY ME BUT BY THIS BREEDER www.calascorns.com

As you can see this snake is no where done changing colors yet.
Eventually all the other colors dissapear and all you are left with is just the beautiful red.

that is what most adults will look like, although there is great variation in that too. some will keep a faint outline of their saddles, others will turn solid red. Some have a pure white belly, others have a mottled white w/red belly. Depends upon how much diffusion they have, and what lineage they are from. either way, still a vivd looking snake in my eyes. :D
