07 Opal Corn Snake pair. Just got them yesterday along with a Butter Motley(pics later).
The are much much smaller then any of my 07 babies and were only born a month or 2 after them.

Very nice! It seems that you are always adding to your snakey family! LOL. But that’s a good thing. ;)

They are lovely, Lisa! The male looks pinker than the female as you might expect. Very nice! Will look forward to progression photos.

Thanks :)

I just can’t believe how tiny they are. Just as tiny as my hatchling that were born 3 or 4 months ago. It’s crazy cause they are a year old.

Hey, again, Lisa! They are adorable! Just wonder why they’re so small? I assume from the lack of "negative" info that they’re eating well and that they aren’t stressed, etc. Could they be "pygmy corns"? LOL. Just curious. Another thread had hers going from 14" to 3’ 1" in one year...

Maybe they just haven’t been fed as much, or are genetically small... Some of the morphs tend to be a bit small and maybe not eat very well, but like Fred I assume these are eating ok. They’ll perk up with regular feeding, I’m sure.

The guy I bought them from sent a sheet with the feeding dates all the way back to when they were born....but the writing looks all exactly the same(all the same direction and same pen). So who knows if they were actually fed on those dates..but I hope so.
:) I’m feeding the today..maybe I’ll get some pics :)
