Please excuse my ignorance here, with all of the different colours out there for corn snakes, I'm having trouble telling if my newest snake is a normal! Please help me with your wisdom everyone!

Was hurrying to feed the snakes before we set out for a concert last night. Finished and rushed out the door. Realized this morning, left the bag of pinkies on the counter, overnight. D'oh!

Hello all, I'm hoping someone with experience in morph identification can help me. I've adopted a 9 year old corn snake, I was told she was a ghost, but most of the pictures I've looked at, don't really look like her! Colour wise, somewhat, but all the pictures I've looked at still have the...

Sorry for how dark this pic is, Floyd's new favourite thing is to come out of his hide just a bit and rest his chin on a nearby rock to keep an eye on us in the living room. I can't use the flash or it will scare him before I can take a picture :)

Here's my new girl, 6-year old Amel, Syn :) She is such a lovely, sweet girl.

Hi all, I went today and bought a fresh supply of frozen pinks for my hatchling as well as a few adults for my new 6-year old. It was fairly warm in the truck when I went to leave and though I wrapped up the plastic bag as best I could and then hurried home (about 20 mins), when I went to put...

Are there any risks to taping the UTH to the outside of the viv without removing the peel off waxed paper? I'm only wondering because I'm going to be getting a new viv soon and would rather be able to reuse the UTH on the new viv. Is there anything bad that can happen if I don't peel 'n' stick?

Hello all, I posted a question a couple days ago about putting two heat mats on one thermostat and everyone was very helpful. Now I have a new problem. Turns out my new snake's heat mat is bigger than the other that's plugged into the thermostat (I thought they were the same), so even though it...

I've had my first hatchling corn snake, Floyd for about a month now, and I've just acquired my second corn snake, a beautiful 6 year old amel girl. I don't plan on any more right away because I rent and don't want to have to worry so much about when we eventually need to find a new place...

I've just brought home the newest family member, a 6 year old Amel named Syn. She is very pretty, and so friendly! Anyways, the tank I brought her home in has a metal mesh lid, one side has a strip of metal on the inside the hooks under the plastic lip of the viv to it can't be lifted, but the...

Hello all, I've just adopted a 6 year old female Amel. She is quite pretty but I'm curious if an older snake brought into a new home will need the same amount of time to adjust as a new hatchling? For my baby snow I waited a week before handling him at all, should I do the same with the adult?

I have a ZooMed Reptitemp thermostat which is currently controlling the UTH of my hatchling's viv, aided by a digital thermometer. I am going to be getting another corn snake soon, and thought, great! My thermostat has two plugs, so I can put the new viv beside the other and control both UTH...

Hello, I am looking for a 20L Zilla Critter Cage. None of the pet stores in my city EVER seem to have this size in stock and I need that exact size. I don't have a lot of money but would like to be prepared for my young snake to grow up, he is currently in a 10gal Critter Cage and the design is...

I had been kinda worrying about Floyd's first shed and hadn't even noticed him in blue, and he ate a couple of days ago too. This morning when I took him out he had a perfect shed in the viv with him! Eyecaps and all, I went to take it out to save but it was stuck on a rock and tore in two :( I...

Hi all, so my viv (10gal critter keeper) is set up with aspen substrate, hides on the warm and cool side and of course a water dish. My warm side stays approximately 85F and the cool side stays between 75-77F. I notice Floyd seems to spend more time on the cooler side burrowing into the aspen, I...

Hi all. So I got Floyd last Sunday and have more or less left him alone except to change his newspaper to astroturf and fill his water. When I got him the man told me he had been last fed about a week previous, a pinkie mouse. I have some frozen pinkies ready to go and have been patiently...

Hi all, I'm sorry I'm sure this has been asked already but I only have my phone for internet at the moment and the search bar will not work for me. I am new to keeping snakes and thought I had everything I need but I've realised I don't have a thermostat for my heat mat. Can anyone tell me where...

Hi everyone! My name's Jenn and I'm from Calgary AB, Canada. I currently have one baby snow corn snake named Floyd. I also have two budgies (who just laid a clutch!), two convict cichlids, a dwarf gourami and a boxer dog named Buster. Just discovered these forums and I'm very excited to be here...
