hey guys ...whats up...ok me and my brother have a bet..he says like u can get a candy cane or amel or like a snow corn snake in the wild.....but i say we can only find normal corn snakes ..in the wild......so what is it...can u find other than normals in the wild................ its a biggg betttt...... please reply soon......
 
yes, you can find others than normal in the wild. I'm not knowledgeable on the subject but I know that you can get anerys in the wild and they're actually quite popular in areas of Florida. As I said, I don't know much about this but, if you can find anerys then there must be a few more wild morphs. The Carolina is another one, it's a type of normal but a little different.

Someone else wil be able to give you more information.

yup

Neil is right. I have heard of many many anerys in the wild. I believe there are amels as well....but Anery corns are very common in the areas Neil mentioned. Both Anery corns and Amel corns are "albinos" so I am sure you can find both. Anery being a black albino missing reds and Amel being Red Albino missing blacks.

There are the normals and the red and black albinos. in the wild. But you dont likely have a chance of finding a hypo lavender motley or a striped orange candycane. Those are special bred. So technically you are both right and both wrong.
 
you can get albinos the wild (both black and red), the candycane and snow's are specially bred. So you both win.

Umm, just to clarify some things:

Theoretically, you could find any genetic morph in the wild - that's where the genes came from. But not many morphs exist in the wild, because of the very low probabilty of 2 snakes with the same genes breeding, and the very low likelihood of morphs to make it to adulthood and breeding age. Amels would have pretty much a 0% chance of reproducing in the wild. Same with most others - especially amel-combination morphs. Even if a snow happened to hatch in the wild, it would be too different from everything around it, and would look like a good target to predators.

Normals and anerys live in the wild - and thrive, grow to adulthood, and reproduce. There's probably some charcoals, too. And hypos would probably also be able to survive. Amels have probably a 0% chance of living to adulthood in the wild, even though they are probably born every once in a while.

So, I'd say you're pretty much right. I'd say at least 99% of corn snakes in the wild are normal. The ones that aren't normal are usually concentrated to specific localities.
