Thought I'd share this...Pitre, our corn snake of 8 yrs died of kidney cancer 6 yrs ago at the age of 11.

This is one of his offspring, emailed to me tonight out of the blue...he was the size of a pencil when I gave him to a friend seven yrs ago.

What a pretty animal!

Thanks, Alice! Hi mother was a "normal" and his father an "albino melanistic" - red eyes, pink and orange and white scales...just gorgeous! And a real sweetheart, too!

Shirley Correction..Amelanistic, not albino melanistic.

Thanks, I'll post of picture of Pitre sometime when I get it scanned. He was awesome! Had him for 8 years and he used to go to school and hang out with the kids while they did their work. Very calm snake.
