So I've been chatting with a very nice guy in my area who's working with a few different kinds of corns(other snakes too). Some of you may remember I posted about a 1;1 of hoggies, this is the same seller. In the process of our conversation, he mentioned he had a few of his cornsnakes for sale too...a 1:1 of butter motleys and a 1:1 of normals double het for terrazzo and anery.
I love the normals, they're lovely... and honestly? I've wanted a nice classic for a while, but theres so many exciting morphs to choose from its hard to settle on just one.
A classic with interesting hets seems like a good comprimise for that issue (lol...either that or just more snakes!) but I know NOTHING about the Terrazzo gene. They're '08s...eating F/T ...The guy wants 400$ for the pair, and that -does- seem a little steep. But what do I know? That could be an amazing deal as far as I know (I thought now was a good time to start learning). I DO know at the moment that Terrazzo is a desireable (or at least less common) morph. Is that correct? Does that price seem...reasonable?
To be clear, I'm not in this for money. I plan on breeding in a very limited fashion someday(just to experiance the process)...but not soon and not for profit. I did a search on here of "terrazzo" and came up with a wealth of info...but I'm a little lost with so much. I guess my main questions are: what is the differance (laymans terms please) between 'origional granite' and 'Terrazzo'? I know there is one as it was mentioned in one of the threads I've found...but I know I'm not understanding it fully.
Does it work like a normal simple recessive? What does a really great example of a Terrazzo look like (adult/hatchling)? and this last one feels like a REALLY stupid question...but I have to ask...are they hybrids? I may be totally confused about some things I was reading...lol
Not too concerned with their value as hatchlings...as I said...I wont be breeding for a while...and by the time I do there will probably lots of other people working with them too...
Anyway...pretty much anything you folks have to tell me would be really helpful. Thanks so much!
