Diamondlil has one of them,make a search under her name to see some pics.


From Serpwidgets CMG: Christmas-Also known as "Christmas hypo" these have been test-crossed against other known "hypo-like" genes,but tests to prove its heritability as a simple recessive gene have not been done.
(I hope I didn't do anything wrong by posting the above.. :shrugs: )

From the few pics I have seen none had any green on it,but the saddle color was something like deep red and the ground color orange-red?Well something like that.... :)
 
Actually the original use of the name "Christmas Corns" was from a guy named Kevin Enge who used the name for some offshoots of his Candy Cane line. They were named this for the greenish hue that the borders around the blotches had. So the effect was a red and white snake with green around the borders.

Some very high white RO's have that going on... I can see why they would be named "christmas corns"... as cheesy as it may be :grin01:

Don't forget that christmas corns has also been used to describe the pink and green snows (aka bubblegums), and I've heard of both the these and the ones you described called Kleidescope corns. :) Don't you love the constant name change and how people re-use names without checking to see if it has already been used?

Good luck. The ones I've seen are pretty and bright, but they really don't look that different from any other line-bred bright cornsnake. Pretty, but not what I'd call a simple recessive hypo-type cornsnake. PLUS, it seems like there is a big secret circling around these guys. Where are images of a baby next to a normal and a hypo for comparison? Where are images of adults? etc.. I've only had juvies in my hand (and they struck me as normal corns), and the blotch outline wasn't green even if you had a LOT of imagination.

Theres a couple of pics of corns in this thread ====>>> Christmas Corns

The Green seems to be more of a yellow/gold/bronze

:cheers:

As nice looking as those 2 snakes were. I couldn't see any green on them at all. I'd like to see a pic of a corn like those 2 with real green like the bubblegum snows have. That would be cool!

I agree, no visible green, maybe in 'Real Life' it is more obvious.

In Kathy Loves book The C.O.G on page 168, there is a pic of a 'Christmas Corn'. Basically looks like a Hypomel with a layer of frost on its scales :)

Still no green....

:cheers:
