    Snow corn...BLUE EYES???

    I purchased what was labeled a male motley snow corn today at the hamburg reptile show in PA. When I got the snake home I noticed an insane amount of pink on top and very vivid yellow on the side. I know the yellow is normal but the dark pink is unbelievable. The most unusual thing though is this snow has blue eyes...Is this possible or was I sold a mix or something?

    He's probably just in blue (about to shed). Usually snow corns take on a more purplish/pinkish color when they shed, but I suppose it could be blue. But there's no cornsnake that has blue eyes not in shed.

    Thanks for the reply. I've had ball pythons for years and I know what the cloudy eyes look like during shed. Only the iris of this snake is blue(a silvery blue). http://www.cornsnakes.com/forums/showthread.php?t=90521
    This ghost corn has blue eyes. The eyes of his snake are about the same as mine only mine is a little more on the silvery side. Just never thought this was possible for a snow corn.

    I found the problem. The snake was mislabeled at the show. And since I'm kind of a newbie with corn morphs I didn't know it. This image is labeled Ghost motley. He looks exactly like this image. In fact it may even be the same snake considering this is the breeder I purchased him from.

    Yeah if its the iris that's blue, that can happen in ghosts. If its as pink as you say, probably a pastel ghost motley.

    Definitely not a snow if the iris's are blue.
