There has GOT to be something wrong with me...I'm soooo happy!

[starsevol]

So yesterday I took all my brumated corns and cleaned their cages of urates, changed their water, and weighed them before putting them back in their heated shelves. I said hello to each of them and held them. It was WONDERFUL to see them all again, I missed them!

Something must really be lacking in my life when cleaning snake mess is the highlight of my day!

Oh but it IS lovely to see snakes you havent seen for 2 months. I was so excited when my corns came out of brumation :)

Mine come out very soon, and while I've missed looking at them, I can't say that I've missed feeding them. I'm kinda dreading it... :uhoh:

What's brumation?

[ghosthousecorns]

I'm just warming mine up as well and will be trying to feed them in a couple/ few days. I feel just like Dean, I miss the snakes, the work not so much....

Reptile hibernation.

What's brumation?

Brumation is the reptilian equivilant of mammalian hibernation, it differs from hibernation due to the metabolic processes involved. :)

Hope that helps

wonder why my snakes never went into brumation...:shrugs::shrugs:

[Sheezy]

As a thought, because of my area, as soon as I get a corn snake it might go into brumation XD

[ShroomieGirl]

is burmation necessary?

[ShroomieGirl]

nevermind... answered my own question!:grabbit:
