I have two snakes living together - they have been together all their lives, and occasionally (especially after meals) they make a jerking, spastic movement with their bodies. Usually when they are touching eachother. I was just curious if this is a mating type of behaviour or if it is an "i'm a...

If i were to introduce two corns that have never met (both adults that have never seen another corn, since i got them as hatchlings) in a neutral territory, would they fight? or just not care that the other is there? I would like to indroduce them, but i fear one o fthem getting injured.

I have a normal male and I just got a female ghost aberrant housed in completely different room. Now my normal hasn't been eating regularily since spring hit. He is about 3 years old. What is the probablity that he smells the female and has 'other things on his mind' rather than eating?

i just got a job at Petsmart ( a pretty big pet store chain up here in canada) in the reptile section. i hope to inform people just as much as you all informed me. i hope i can change the way people view and act towards reptiles. i just want to thank you all because i'm sure you have helped my...

Do corns eat insects? i mean... would they? can they? hehe that might be interesting lol

I saw some substrate that was kinda like bark but it was compacted and the directions say to soak it in water (it was the size of a brick) and it will expand to 7 or 8 times its original size... any thoughts on it? has anyone used it before?

After my corn eats a nice meal, he doesn't just relax and digest it.. he wonders around like its nothing... and i am sure about the proper quantity of food. i dunno, maybe he is just strange.

Lately my corn (Edger) has been swimming around in his water alot. I was just wondering if it was because its too hot in his cage and he just needs to cool off. thanks... now that i think of it... maybe he just lies swimming. Well thanks for any input. Jeff

my corn is about a year old and shortly i will be going on vaction for about 2 weeks.. i was wondering if i feed my snake just before i go, will he be alright until i get back? or will i have to get someone to feed him? any advice would be great. THANKS~!

I was curious if anyone knew of any blueprints or plans to build a snake box- preferably out of wood, that I can put into a nice wooded area to see if any snakes decied to make it their home. Don't worry I won't keep them - i won't even touch them. i Just need it for a project. I am trying to...

when i was holind my corn he seemed rather intrigued by the mirror beside me, i was wondering if i were to put a mirror in his cage (just a small one) would it be fun for him or just stess him out because he might think its another snake?

Living way up here in canada (eh?) i have been looking forward to warm weather to take my corn outside. my question is : since he has been indoors for all of his life will taking him outside for a while give him a sunburn or something like that because he is not used to the sun? What is the...

Are there any special precautions i should take if i want to let my snake have a swim in the bath tub?

I was just curious if my snake (or snakes in general) would get bored if i don't change his cage around every so often. i take him out almost daily, but it seems so boring to be stuck in their all night. Just a thought. oh - and does anyone have any idea's on some fun sort of.. well.. not really...

Is it normal for a snake just to lay eggs with being in contact with any other snakes? i was reading i post and it put me under the impression thats its normal for female snakes to lay unfertilized eggs... :bounce:
