Been breeding gutatta and p.regius for years and years.

That's not a 'normal' corn snake. Too brown. If it were a normal cornsnake it would be showing more red pigments by that size.

It looks alot like the corn's cousin, the Great Plains Rat snake (p.g.emoryi).

Could be a pure Great Plains Rat or a corn X Great plains cross.

You are right it does look more like a cross between the two, but I dont think that it is pure great plains rat snake. Rating: 3/5

 She is really amazing. As soon as I looked at her, I knew she wasnt normal. There have been suggestions that she is a variation of a WC from here in Florida. But...like was said previously, she is such a brown. The pic is as always not a true representation of her, but she lacks pretty much all red. She is very large as well. At this yard sale I bought an Anery male (adult) and an amel female about 2 to 3 feet. I wish I knew for sure. But I guess when her eggs hatch I will just have to say "genetics unknown". Cant wait. Thanks to all.

 It's odd that people are selling snakes at yard sales, at least to me.

Nice find. :)

I would suggest, however, that you don't use pine/cedar chips for a substrate. They can easily be digested and cause damage, and have been linked to repiratory problems... Well, I know in rodents for sure. Perhaps I don't know what I'm talking about, but I would look into it, just in case.

Good luck!
