I am just a rookie at breeding cornsnakes, but if it anything like breeding Beardies than i may be successful. :)


What female or females would produce some great offspring that would be relatively easy to sell, not for profit just to get some pocket change for snake food? Thanks Yall are the bomb! That's not a threat.. lol

In my experience, I'm afraid Corns aren't really that easy to sell in the current climate. Pet buying has really slowed down.

In your first year (assuming you're able to sell them), you might find that you don't make back the money you spend on getting the hatchlings housed, heated and established as feeders.

With a Bloodred male and no known hets, I'd go for a nice female Bloodred and produce more of the same. Mating him with any other morph will just give you Normals het Bloodred(with other hets depending on the female).
 
Amel bloodreds are really pretty, and something he could likely be het for... That'd be my first date for him.
 
My blood red female is going to be breeding with my snow male (in a few years) which will give me Normals Het Amel Anery and Diffused, then i breed them and i get - Amel, Anery, Snow, Fire, Diffused (blood red) granite and avalanche, it's such a broad range, im sure id see few of the avalanches but you never know, but then again this is like a 6 year process.. if ur looking to get unique babies right away you will need another female blood red (unless he has a het for something else?)
 
I'm assuming his hets are unknown, so my first suggestion would be a Bloodred het for Amel and Anery. This would give you all Bloodreds, and, if he proved out for one or both genes, a chance at Fires, Granites, and/or Avalanches.
 
I'd be prepared to keep and feed those babies until the market comes around. It can be difficult to sell them unless you know your local market or you are able to ship them to buyers.

As for what to breed with, I think another blood or blood morph would give you the best offspring in the first generation.
