Hi Everyone!
Yesterday I had my 10 month old male corn snake out. I have him "trained to poop" and he never poops in his cage. At the 48 hour mark after feeding, I take him out and put him on his "special rock" and he does his buisness. But this past feeding, I fed him later at night, around 11:00 PM and I didn't get a chance to take him out until about 65 hours after feeding. Usually when this happens he is cranky at first, but goes back to his happy self quickly. But yesterday he was crankier than I've ever seen him. He was flighty and jumpy, he never ever acts like this. I noticed that he seemed to be possibly exhibiting some breeding behavior, he was jerking his head around like is described in books. Is that what he may have been doing? Or is 10 months too young to see this? The only other thing that I could think of that could have been the cause of this was a change in air pressure. What do you think? Thanks as always! Wendy :D
