i got a baby red and orange whitish corn a while back,i love this dude but now i kindof wish i got the oketee .Im liking more and more the normal morphs and its been buggin me,i like all the morphs but im more into the natural wild look with most herps now,dont get me wrong i love some of them.im sure i could trade him but now ive handled him alot and well,im a sap.this ever happen to you guys?
 
I haven't had the same situation exactly, but I know how you feel. I wish I had pics of the corns available at petco...they look pretty deep orange, and that's how I would like them. Will they stay that way?

If you want, get an okeetee corn snake. But remember, it could be momentary hype; happens to me all the time.
 
im not sure,this is my second corn and the first was a snow,so yeah it stayed the same lol,but i started a thread about keeping 2 together,i see ppl are doing it and ive seen pairs of rosys in the same tank for like 10 years.if you have coments on that please post on my other thread.i think its called 2 to a tank.thanks for posting though.
 
I commented on your rosy thread, but I would not keep baby corns together because I've witnessed cannibalism before. Adults, I suggest not to as well, but if you maintain the same conditions I specified in the rosy thread you made, they should be okay.

I wish I could find the thread on mixing herps I made a while back.

I agree with the first comment about the natural morphs. I did the same - bought a orange / red / white morph at the pet store and about 4 weeks later I went to a big reptile expo and quickly realized I liked the natural colored corns better. But like you I like the snake fine I just know next time what to do - and I always recommend to anyone considering buying a corn to really look around prior to purchase so they don't make the same mistake.
