Thought I would make a post showing off some of my current snakes. There are still several that need proper photos, so I’ll add those in as I take them.

I’ve never actually been interested in corn snakes much before but these are awesome and made me decide to get them at some point.

Thanks! I feel like corns have so much variety in colors and patterns that most people could find one they like. Plus they typically have awesome personalities.

Beautiful group. I have had reverse okeetee and tessera on my list of want to get.

Very beautiful group! The fifth one is especially pretty in my opinion. Do you mind if I steer off course and ask what you use for background and lighting?

Thank you! And sure, I’m happy to share. I have a simple light box that I made. It’s made out of white polystyrene. The left and right sides of the box have large squares cut out of them and are covered with white cotton fabric. I place a lamp on either side of the fabric to get some diffused lighting in there. And I typically use a Canon rebel dslr for photos, but I would imagine that if you have good lighting, any camera, including a phone could do a pretty good job. And I am definitely far from an expert! I always have to fiddle with settings to try to get the color and lighting correct.

Nice collection! I might need to get a corn… I mean why not

Beautiful animals! I think you may have convinced me into getting one (or a few) down the line! Really cool morphs

I’m being redundant here, but they’re beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! I can’t choose a favorite from among your lovely creatures. (Kudos for the great photos, too.)
