Well, i’ve never bought one online, but one place i know of that would be decent is http://www.corn-utopia.com that’s Kathy Love’s website. if there’s anyone you can buy a snake from and feel confident in your purchase it’s from her. she literally wrote the book on Corns.

serpenco is probably the biggest. Rich Zuchowski has probably developed more of the morphs than any one else.
www.serpenco.com - Rich Zuchowski, probably the biggest. I have a butter, hypo miami and a pair of phantoms from his line.

www.cornsnakes.net - South Mountain Reptiles, Don Sodderberg, as big as serpenco maybe. Very good to deal with. Check out this site for the newest book on keeping/breeding corns. It’s the best one yet and answered some questions I had about breeding that I couldn’t get answered on any forums.

www.corn-utopia.com - Kathy Love, the name says it all!!

www.hotsnakes2go.com - don’t let the corny pics fool you. This is a great site and I have talked to Pete and worked with him and will personally vouch for him. I just bought a pair of bloodred het hypo and a pair of hypo stripes from him.

There are more and if you want to I can send you other sites. All of these people are very reputable and are extremely nice to work with. You wont find as much variety this time of year but if you wait unitl summer you will have tons of morphs to choose from!! Some also take deposits for upcoming 2007 morphs.

Is it illegal to have them or just catch them? because the native reptiles page only says the morphs that are in the wild in that state.

Georgia is rediculous. It is illegale to posses any native reptile species. You can not possess a corn, eastern king etc... even if it’s proven to have come from a captive breed program. I know it’s ridiulous. They will confiscate your amber stripe corn and fine you money.

Corn prices will differ from site to site but like they said the big breeders like Love are going to give you high quality corns no questions asked. Just go for the lowest price out of the group because they are all going to be guaranteed and healthy as can be.
