sunglow

Ok Cherub, I can't pretend to have early as much cornsnake experience as you, but am I right in thinking that you have bred snakes and claim that they do not change their colours as they grow?

Has anyone asked Kathy or Chuck to chime in on this thread? It's probably a bit to, uh, abrasive in here for Kathy but I bet Chuck would have fun with this one. :grin01:

If Kathy knew of this thread she'd clear this up in a jiffy. Fact is, despite what Cherub says, sunglows change color from hatchling to yearling to adult. She can say whatever she wants, but it's the truth. My sunglow started off as an amel, and was sold as that. It wasn't sold as a sunglow, but it did develop into one.

Snake's do change as they mature. Bloodreds, stripes, anerys, lavenders, etc etc all come to mind.
 
So snakes don't change colors from hatchling to adult?
yes snakes change their colour but it doesnt change what they are. as i said before ..it cant be an amel today and change into a sunglow tomorrow..your not impressing me either right now..

please dont change the sunbject (roy munson)

Yeah Roy Munson, you to JoeJr.

OK, back to the subject at hand....That's not a Sunglow! Nice picture of a good looking amel, thou.

Maybe since I'm the oldest of all of you, my opinion should be the one that sticks, huh?:shrugs:
 
they change colours, not morphs, of course they change colours, like i said bloodreds, but my sunglow will most probebrly get darker as he grows hes NOT going to for m any white tho
 
I refused to call this snake anything but an amel mot when I first bought him. I couldn't be sure he was going to turn out sunglow. He sure did, though.

Sigh.

Again, a sunglow is an AMEL. A candy cane is an AMEL. A reverse okeete is an AMEL.

There is no sunglow gene, no candy cane gene, no reverse okeetee gene. They are all amels and yes, they do change!

Horse poopies! A snake cannot change, Roy Munson. Gosh you are not very smart!!!!!!
 
My sunglow started off as an amel, and was sold as that. It wasn't sold as a sunglow, but it did develop into one.

Well I'm not sure what an american negro is, but sure.

We're talking about the same gene at work, Cherub. I'm not talking about an amel turning into an anery.

Come on, for your supposed 'experience' and 'knowledge', you're not looking very intelligent.

No, but your tow-headed blonde children may grow up to be brunettes. Pigment quantity and distribution can change with age.

no......you are not listening. it would be an american negro MALE, since you are a female now.
 
A quote from the "Cornsnake Morph Guide" written by Charles Pritzel. His user name is Serpwidgets on this forum.
Some sunglow offspring will start out with white borders, which will then fade out as they mature.
