Citrus Update

My corn snake Citrus that I got back in March is doing really good and is growing, shes now 18" compared to the 13" she was when I got her. I believe her to be female although I'm not 100% sure I need to get her popped or probed. She is now eating two pinkies or one large one once a week. She is a little shy but is a really well behaved snake, shes never rattled her tail, struck, musked, ect.. nothing defensive what so ever. Her colors though are really bugging me though, once I thought I knew what she was she goes and change half her colors, she now has a red pattern on a orange background for the first half or her body and a light orange pattern on a lighter orange back ground. Anyways she's growing good and has already shed once for me and I think shes getting ready to shed again as shes becoming extremely pale so we'll see what color she is after that.

Re: Citrus Update

lol she may change colors as she gets older as well. my snow started out pink and white. now that he is older he has changed to light peachy and white with orangey yellow on the sides of his neck. my anery corn started out black and light grey. since he's gotten older the black has changed to a brown and he has yellow along his neck. its very interesting to watch the color change from baby to adult.

Re: Citrus Update

Utterly adorable, your corn. I have the same type (in fact she looks just like mine, almost the same size too, except Nemean's a male), and after he shed, his orange patches became alot darker, more like red. I assume that's a good sign of healthy development.
I'm kind of curious now to know what colour they can change into, and if they all change the same way? I hope you post an update on your corn's colour after she's shed again.
