Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

What is the nature of the Motley gene in Cornsnakes? If it's codominant like in Boa Constrictor, I'd guess the stripe is just the full motley expression. I don't know anything about corn colors either, except it obviously looks Amel.
Nice looking critters.

They are nice-looking snakes!
FYI -- motley is recessive to normal, striped is recessive to normal, and motley is more or less dominant to striped. It's a case of multiple alleles.

motley/stripe (or motley-stripe) can also mean two different things...
ms (het for both Motley & Stripe)
or
mm (striped variety of Motley)
Photo #1 looks to be a pair of Caramel Motleys
Photo #2 looks like an Amel or Butter Stripe (Amel isn't possible as the parents were Caramel)
Photo #3 looks to be a Caramel Motley
Photo #4 looks to be a Butter Motley-Stripe
The flash of your camera appears to have washed out the colors (and perhaps the Caramels are in shed). When Caramel Motleys first hatch out, it can be difficult to tell the difference between them and Normals...Their are very small differences. I will see if I can locate photos of my newly hatched Caramel Motleys for you to see the difference 2 months provide in color change. I have also noticed that with adult Caramel Motleys, some are tan, some are "greenish," and some are copper.
