Hey guys, i mustve came here 8-9 months ago. Uploaded pics of all 6 corn snakes that i had for you good folks here to identify.

The verdict on this guy was that he's a sunkissed. I figured i'd take some more recent pictures of him and re-assess. Is this guy really a sunkissed or a normal? and what is the difference between a sunkissed and a normal?

On another note:His head and facelook different to me, more blunt than the other 5 corn snakes i have, but anyway i digress

am i still :realhot:sunkissed:realhot:?

Yup, definitely sunkissed based on photo #3.

Sunkissed as a gene modifies both color and pattern. It gives an extra yellow/golden wash to the front 1/3rd of the snake, and squares off the edges of the pattern. On a normal, the edges of the saddles curve toward to the nearest other saddle to create a sort of ( ) effect when viewed from the top. In a sunkissed, it is more like ] [ . For example:
