    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

This fall I hatched 3 good eggs from a clutch of 18 given to me by a friend. They were said to be laid by a wild caught female that is no longer available. One of the hatchlings has extremely large eyes similar to the leucistic Texas Rat Snakes. Is this common in Corn Snakes? Is this a desirable trait in any way or just a defect? Sorry I don't have a picture at this time.
 
It is hard to say, but I have seen large bug eyes in milksnakes that was a defect of too many sibling generation breeding. Without any knowledge of the parents, and the parents being separated as a wild caught and captive bred, I am guessing it was just a fluke that could have occurred for a variable amount of reasons. Birth defect, spike in temps during incubation, rat snake gene from either parent's or what not. It is not a desirable trait, as it may be seen as a defect.
