I found this corn snake on my property in Marion County Florida. It was popping its head out from under a fallen tree. When I pulled her out man was I surprised. Blood red patternless sides and a white belly and a crazy pattern on her back. I just gotta find out has any body seen any thing like her before?

Since this is the classifieds section, I'm assuming you're interested in selling this girl. How much are you asking for her? Thanks.

I wouldn't know what to ask for her. What do you think is a fair price and have you ever seen any corns like this one.

You might try the forums over at Cornsnakes.com (http://www.cornsnakes.com/forums/) or the discussion forums here. I have never seen one like that.

Wow. Nice find. :thumbsup:

The belly looks motley but it's hard to tell about the pattern from the pics.

I would say bloodred motley.

Looks like someone had an escape. :D

He/She is a Bloodred. It is not a new cornsnake morph. I can just about guarantee you that it is an escapee (regardless of you living in the middle of no where). He/She has wonderfully diffused sides. :)

Why is that?

Because the likeliness of finding a Bloodred in the wild is slim to none. Especially one that looks to have been selectively bred for nice diffused sides.

There is a wild population of Bloodreds. Link (http://www.cornsnakes.com/forums/showthread.php?p=217383&highlight=wild#post217383)

Compare the diffusion & the red of the cornsnake in question here to the wild ones they found. The one in this thread looks to have been selectively bred to pull out that lovely red & increase the diffusion.

I know she is really nice looking imagine my surprise when i found her. I also found 6 other normal looking corns with her. Probably sibs who knows. I did think blood at first but just haven't seen any bloods with the high contrast bands and such a clear separation of the diffusion of color. The bloods i have seen do not even come close to the clarity of this girl. Oh well she is beautiful and i will find more hopefully. Thanks for all you trying to figure this out with me. Wilian Risco

that is rather unusual pattern..what is your bottom dollar for the snake, and is it eating f/t or live?
Thanks

It's just a variation of a Blood Cornsnake.

It's a Bloodred and should be called such. No need to make up a new name. Their is already something called a Fire anyway (Amel Bloodred).

I also would like to add...You can tell from a hatchling what is & what isn't a Bloodred.

Also, here is the link to the Cornsnake discussion forum, where this thread should be. :)
