Most Commonly Used Name: Granite
Mode of Genetic Inheritance: Recessive
Morph Type: Mutation Compound ( Anery + Diffused)
Go to History for more details about the DIFFUSED / BLOODRED base mutation of this compound morph.
This compound morph results from combining the color mutation, Anerywith the pattern mutation Diffused. As with most morph compounds that include Diffused, the Granite mutations color effect is greatly diffused (markings often barely visible). Except for some of the color and pattern variants of this mutation compound. Male Granite Corns are usually more colorful than females, demonstrating a wash of many different soft colors (e.g. coral, pink, yellow, tan).
What to expect:
Many Granite hatchlings look like little more than regular Anery Corns, but the head should have some form of Bloodred/Diffused head pattern, and the belly will be devoid of classic Anery Corn snake black & white checkering. The belly pattern can have colors – and even pattern – but not organized checkering. Carotenoid yellow – retained from diet – is common in this mutation compound and often contributes to interesting color combinations.
SURPLUS section of this web site). We do not provide pictures of individual hatchling snakes for sale, nor do we recommend that you ever choose a new pet based on an image of its neonatal form. Corns change so dramatically from hatchling to adult, they will NEVER have the same colors or contrasts throughout maturity.While most of the snakes we produce will mature to resemble the featured adult image(s) on our web site, unlike manufactured products that are respectively clones of each other, the nature of polygenic variation results in each animal being similar but not identical to others of its morph. The snake we select for you may not mature to be identical to the pictured examples, but will be chosen based on our experience of observing which neonates will mature to properly represent their respective morph. We take this responsibility very seriously, and therefore publish the guarantee that we will exchange your SMR snake if it does not mature to be like our advertised examples.
