Heres snoop my new snake, I collected him today. Cool isn't he. I have a bigger tank for him coming soon, but the guy suggested leaving him the current one till he is a bit bigger.

He does look similar to mine and yes, he is gorgeous! What did they sell him as? I mean, what morph?

it said normal corn snake on the tub. They had various other morphs, one was about £70 for the same size as mine, which was £40.
I cant remember the other names.

He looks a bit like an okeetee, which is a normal one really, but with more black around the blotches. I paid £30 for mine, but it was direct from the breeder

I have just been looking at the okeetee ones online, very similar.
maybe he/she was bred from that and a different one?

Yeah, quite possible. Really good looking though, and as Mourne says, very unusual marking on the head!

Very nice snake. I reckon I would just call it a normal but a very nice one. And I agree the marking on the head is lovely. I was helping out in my local reptile shop the other day and he had a snow corn in with a perfect love heart on its head. Bet that doesn't stay there long.

Does the marking on the head change with time?

I have found with mine that head markings don`t actually change but get bigger and some kinda spread out.

Sorry I mean't the snow corn wouldn't be in the shop very long.
