Description I've had my corn snakes since they popped out of their eggs.  This one is named Gokai and was given to me for free because the breeder, and at the time science teacher, didn't think she would survive due to her small size.  She is still alive, over 10 years later.  She is a prolific egg layer and has a very interesting set of markings on her, including her underbelly which is shown here.  Most corn snakes have a white and black checkered underbelly.  Gokai has an infusion of orange that gets more constant as it gets closer to her tail.  I'm happy to have her! © 2013-Current.

It's interesting that they would have evolved with underbellies that have such beautiful markings.  Maybe it's because they spend time rolling, or on their backs?

Rarely.  I'm not quite sure.

She's a bit more fidgety than her sister, but I love her.
