I'd ask this on Yahoo! Answers, but... they aren't very reliable in my sense. :/
So, what do you all know? What is the coolest/prettiest corn snake morph you have ever seen? Something to make my mom stop thinking corns are so "ugly" and uninteresting...

There's the "classic" normal and the okeetee morph. Amels are pretty nice looking too.

I've got it!

Hypo Amber or Ultramel Amber. Golden yellow all over with hardly no black tipping or borders. Reddish dark eyes and buttery yellow. Awesome. I can post pics.

My favorite color is grey, so I love pewters! Especially motley or tessera pewters <3

But I think the classic Okeetee is still my favorite. I am not a big fan of most unnatural morphs or really anything humans have selectively bred for. Usually Mother Nature did a perfect job.

Here is an Abbott's Okeetee bred by a member of my local herp club, Wendy Henderson.

Well, I'll throw this in. My mom likes ball pythons way more and she's thinking that'll be the snake I should get if I even get a snake. But I like colubrids and that includes rat snakes... which is why I ask about corn snakes. (they have abundant mutations)
Anyway, I guess it's something about the earthly colors and the pattern. Anybody know something for that?

Trans pecos rat snake is a colubid .
Honduran milk snakes are too, hypo tangerine albino is very cool looking as well.
Otherwise.. here look at corns and see what you think .. http://www.vmsherp.com/ViewCornsnakes.htm

Corn snakes are like the 1.99 bag of little plastic snakes. They have one in every color. Here are a few pics of some of mine.

Actually, corn snakes are generally cheap snakes, costing usually around $100 dollars or less. Only a few new morphs cost way high on the price list, but they'll go down, given a year or two. :)
And is this not a cool morph of corn snake? :)

I didn't know corn snakes had such amazing coloring... They seem to be a very underrated snake! Thanks for this thread everyone!!! Keep the pics comin'....

I stopped by a local Petco today (I rarely go to Petco...) and their hatchling cornsnakes are going for $19.99 until April 21st. Not a great buy for normals or amels, but not bad at all for anything fancier. They had some motleys, a reverse Okeetee and a caramel. Thought some of you cornflakes might be interested!
