corn snake head wobble

[ahcid]

Hi. The heat went out in my house and it got cold enough to freeze my toilets. My corn snake was buried in his bedding and survived. He is now acting funny. His head shakes side to side and its almost as if he is blind. I just fed him his usual 3 live hoppers and I noticed he didn't curl around them and crush them. Any ideas?

He could have neurological damage from getting cold. Did his heat go out?

[ahcid]

The heat went out in the house. He has a heat lamp that was on but my house got to -10 Celsius. For a few days...

[Nanci]

Yeah, that's very bad. Weren't you home?

[ahcid]

No. I work 7on 7off. I'm not sure how long it was cold either.

I'm very sorry to hear about your snake. :'(

[Afrederi]

I'm so sorry Ahcid. I'm glad he made it. I think if he's still able to eat, he'll be okay even with the neurological damage.

He might come around. Things can improve over time. He probably had the equivalent of a stroke from the extreme cold.

How is he doing?

Same here. I was hoping he would rebound from it. An update would be cool.
