Favorite Kind of corn

What is the prettiest looking corn? I was looking around online cause im thinking of gettin one. I like the charchoal corns the oketee corns and i like the silver queen corns they sell on serpen co. I was just wondering what you guys thought was the prettiest one.
 
My favorites are probably bloodreds, followed closely by lavendar bloodreds (at least going by the 2 lavendar bloodreds that I've seen), then ambers.

Of the ones you listed, I'd pick the charcoals.
 
As for snakes you can get readily, I like charcoals and motleys, and many of the darker, deeper colors. Personally, my very very favorite morph is the charcoal motley that Rich Z posted a while back (and now it is my goal to breed my own :D)
 
my favorites are the green snow blotchs or the sunglows -harvests are also pretty--but it all depends on what colours that YOU like
 
So many to chose from!

Geez, I love a nice Okeetee with thick black borders, but I also love a really red bloodred. The hypo lavs are nice as are the butters, but they sure aren't cheap! I love coral snows, pewters and miami's also... I could go on. :rolleyes: Anyhow, my next corn will probably be a bloodred or an okeetee. Seriously though, go with your gut! Which one did you see and think "wow I've got to have that!" Pick that one and you'll be happy no matter what!
 
The prettiest corn is the one that YOU think is the prettiest. Lavenders are my personal favorite, and butters have been growing on me lately. I also love motley, and I think the motley pattern can improve the looks of any color corn!
 
I like all the bright colored ones. Right now I have an amel, and I'll soon have 3 Aztec Okeetees. I'd love to eventually get one of Steve's high pink snows!
 
It is funny how my opinion has changed on this since I started looking at corns. Originally I only liked a few of them, but the more I look at them the more they grow on me. At this point I could get any of them and be very happy. I've got 7 hatchlings at the moment and I'm really thinking that the charcoal ghost may very well end up being the nicest of them. This is a group that includes a hypo lavender, hypo bloodred, flourescent oranges, pewter, and a hypo okeetee.
 
Caramel motley for me. The rich browns and yellows of the Caramel just seem to glow when you combine them with a motley pattern. To be honest, a nice, clearly marked Normal does it for me every time as well.
 
I think Darin says it well, you start out liking only a few, but the more you look, the more you like. At first, I never cared for the Bloodreds, but I have a pair coming from Rich today. Didn't like the Charcoals either...got 1 last year, and am getting another from Rich today along with a pair of Charcoal ghosts and a Blizzard. At this point, I don't think there is a cultivar of cornsnake that I DON'T like!
 
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say anerys and ghosts. The prettiest snake I have right now though is a hypomelanistic het silver queen ghost from Rich Z. She even had eggs after I got her but they were slugs or died in the incubator so my plans for a ghost are put off for a while...This is what else I have
1.2 normals, male is het anery and amel, females' hets unknown
1.2 snows, one of the females is green blotched
1.0 amelanistic het anery
0.1 anery het amel
 
In Kathy loves book "the cornsnake manual" There is a picture of an aztec corn, it looks to be blue and black. If it is actually that colour then that would be my favorite. If not then Oketee, Hypomel, Snow, Ghost, and Caremel. Those are my top favorites.
