It's a snow.

A better picture would tell us if it's a snow motley, as it looks like the saddles aren't completely connected.

It looks like a yearling, which will up its value. I would go with 30-50 dollars, assuming it eats frozen/thawed. Snows are just too common now to pay much more without gets like stripe, bloodred, other colors like lavender, or some of the neater hypo genes as known hets.

What did they want for it? Head over to cornsnakes.com for more opinions, we're friendly.

Pretty, healthy looking snake though. If you want a nice snake to have, play with and enjoy, looks like a good choice.

+1, and one of my favorite morphs.

The saddles are the pinkish-grey blotches in the photo. On a normal corn, those are typically a shade of red to brick red.

FWIW and not sure if you know, but a snow corn is a double recessive. It's expressing both albinism and anerythrism. It almost lacks the ability to produce all skin pigments. According to Don Soderberg though, apparently their skin cells are able to sequester carotenoids, resulting in hues of yellows, oranges, and pinks to be expressed, particularly in older snakes and generally around the head and neck.

Don's price list is cool in that he actually explains the genetics...might be a good starting point...
