Alright-- at first glance, I didn't like these guys much, but after perusing a few sites and seeing how undeniably fat and cute they are, I have to know-- are they really as fat and adorable as they look?! Picture call! :p Let's see some of those stubby little wormies.

Today my 1.1 amel het anery p/het caramel (amel+snow+butter stripes anyone?) arrived in the mail! They're so itty bitty! Unfortunately I couldn't take too many pictures since they're resting, but I managed to nab a few on their way into their tubs. ;) The male is pretty active and fearless...

Hey guys! So I was getting ready to set up my 16qt sterilites (I have 2 corns coming on on Tuesday) and looking online for a cheap shelving when I came across this: http://www.amazon.com/Oscar-Tom-Aquatics-Repti-House-Jumbo/dp/B001F95UUA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1233884237&sr=8-1...

Hello! I intend to order pinkies and fuzzies from MiceDirect ($10 a bag!) for my expanding corn collection, however I am a college student and I noticed that the box shipping weight is ~30lbs including dry ice weight. The university's mail/package system normally involves the box being sent to...

Hey guys! I just wanted to throw this out there before I spend money on new things-- If you have any clean (used or otherwise) extra viv decor (vines, hides, climbs, water bowls) that you'd be willing to sell at a "used" price, and can ship immediately, I'd be glad to take it off of your hands...

Anyone? :) There aren't too many good pictures of pastels that I could find, so I'd love if you could post a few here! --Ashley :p

Hey guys! I looked through a thread search, but didn't find anything to answer my question... I think I'm finally taking the step to expand my collection and buy a second corn snake (uh oh... I think we all know where it goes from here). However, rather than buying a second 10gal tank, I am...

Hey! I am very much looking for a butter or buttercream, preferably an '08 or '07. While pattern isn't a big issue, I'd be crazy happy if you had a motley cubed or stripe. ;) Thanks guys!

Hey! So I know humid hides are normally used for snakes with bad sheds, but is it bad to keep one in the tank regularly? My snake's last shed wasn't whole (his basking light seems to be drying out the tank), so I picked up a little fish bowl and sphagnum moss and made him a humid hide. He...

... photograph in an Aerogarden! :rofl: New skin!

Well, not quite, but I'm about to that point. :) If anyone has a dwarf boa for sale or knows of a breeder/resale in the US, please pass it on! I can't find a single breeder (or even one for sale) within the US-- for some reason, dwarf boas are more common in the UK. Thanks! :wavey:

So I'm not entirely sure whether or not this could be relevant to corns. While I was feeding Cornelius today my Mom told me that waaay back, she kept another "small snake" (she couldn't remember the species) that they never had to worry about feeding: they simply kept his water bowl filled with...

Hello all! With this semester over, I recently moved myself and my cornsnake (Cornelius!) back home for a four-week break, and to get to the point, I'm concerned with tank heating. I've been using a basking lamp during the day in combination with a UTH side-mounted where he normally hangs out...

Hey! I have a question. This evening, after seeing Cornelius in a rather explorative mood, I took an empty ritz cracker box and ripped (not cut, to avoid the sharp edges) holes, made folds for little "landings" to climb, etc and placed it in his tank. He's all over it, climbing and poking in...

So, I've always noticed that Cornelius loves to come out of hiding when I work in my room and listen to music. He comes right up to the glass of his viv, gets comfy, and likely listens/feels the vibrations in the glass. Well, I do my work with him out sometimes (he's in love with my keyboard)...
