She is a beautiful little Classic/Normal. I love her saddles! (The borders on her saddles are very pretty)

Hi and welcome to the forum!
Your little snake is a real beauty. So it sounds like you don't have any Corn Snake care knowledge, is that correct? If so, you need to learn a lot and fast, if you want to keep your new pet healthy.
Start by doing lots and lots of reading on this site about basic care. When I was new I asked questions, but I also read all the FAQS under each topic as well as did lots of searches. Look up Caresheet and see how much you can learn before the big day comes (Friday, right?).

Oh don't worry I have been reading a lot about these little guy/gals over the last few weeks. I also have a good friend who knows lots and lots since hes like the reptile master. haha, so im not to worried about husbandry. Mostly i suppose I'm concerned about feeding, some people say feed live and some say feed frozen thawed. Has anyone has a better experience with either? Cause i know if you feed live sometimes the snake can get hurt from a bite or something.

Most in here feed frozen/thaw for the reason you mentioned, but you should do a search and read all the different arguments

If it takes frozen thawed you better feed frozen thawed, it's cheaper, safer and you can buy large amount of mice. But still your choice of course, but me personally can't see any benefits in feeding live except when the snake refuses dead mice.

An Ultramels have dark ruby eyes, but they are not jet black.
Also, the tone is wrong for an Ultramel. They can be pretty orange, yes, but the over all tone is one that looks much more hypo (bright) than this snake's.
Classics have a large range of variation. The oranges and reds on this snake look well within the range of Normal to me as well.
