Thats great! I really hope this helps you make progress with her attitude and eating wise.

She is eating fine. It was last summer it stopped eating for a while.

Looking at your pics I would say for sure the light one and maybe both look over weight. So if one is a female and did get bred it could cause problems.

I don't know the sex of them.
I got that extra tank I just need a heat source now.
And a hiding spot.

Sorry thought you said they might be 1.1. You can use plastic tubs (like butter or whipped cream), carpet tubes are nice, I also like broken clay pots. I just buy the cheap ones and crack a hole in the side and crack a bigger hole in the bottom.

Awesome. My son is using one as a bookcase and he wants a snake for his room. It's nice to know I can put heat tape down on that.

Yeah- since heat tape should only be around 90*, I figure a plastic shelf is just fine. If it melts the shelf, it would probably be hot enough to kill the snake.

I go to the dollar store to buy hides.... I turn bowls into hides, or opaque jars, or planters. And I also buy the fake plants there. And water dishes. My snakes love the dog dishes that they can hide under.

Mine like to borow into the coconut mulch.

Anyone know which type of corns my snakes are?
