New babies

Good going Telgalad. The pics are a bit dark but to me they look like normals - maybe het for something? I am not a cornsnake expert though. Congratulations. How many babies do you have now?

Congrats!! Those look like normals to me. Dad looks like a normal, mom too. So they are most likely not het for anything.

Very, very few hets visibly affect the colour of the snake and even these are highly debatable. Amels that are het for caramel are often yellower but not always. :)

Reptilians sold the Mother to my cousin as a Crimson.

Crimsons are hypo miamis basically.

I've seen some "crimsons" in SA that didn't look like crimsons to me...

The mom looks borderline to me, she might be a true crimson, I always ask about parents personally.

I must say when I saw the photos that I had taken she looked like a normal to me but when you see her in real life she does not look like a normal
