No worreis about the thread hijack! Forums are for open discussions.

It's kinda cool how Gothi and her uncle brokk have the same head stamp. I like getting as much lineage info as possible. Are there any pics of taz (from tara ) posted on this forum?

I linked the wrong thread, so I fixed it. The original clutch from 2011 is now linked above.
I noticed I hadn't added photos of the parents, so those are added on the last page (link goes to last page of thread).

Thanks for updating that and including the pictures of brokk's parents!

Great bunch of corn snakes. I’m glad you rescued the one from Craig list. How’s he doing?

Thanks for asking about him. Mouse is doing great. I've slowly been bumping up his feeding and currently he is eating a small mouse from the fuzzy he was getting for his first two years. His size is still stunted but he has grown some and put on more weight. This past weekend I was working a local reptile expo and took him along to teach people about corns. He did great with being handled by little kids and people who have never touched a snaked.

Appears I forgot to update with my newest take-in from earlier this month.

I found this one on Craigslist. She is a 4yo amel, at least I think it's a she. She was $20 and came with a 20L tank, screen lid, nice water bowl, log and log hide. The girl I got her from has been fostering her for the past year. She worked in a chain pet store. A customer came in stating they didn't want the snake anymore and if the store didn't take it then they were going to turn it loose in the wild. When the foster got the snake from the customer there were no hides in her tank. When I was checking her out she was super relaxed and easy to handle, like she had previously been handled alot. She had recently gone off food so I gave her a fuzzy just to make her feel at home before I put her into quarantine. Her new name is Lydia .

Luna doesn't normally venture out of her hide but the past three nights I have found her climbing in the fake plant in her tank.

They look great!

I've been looking for a honey tessera to use for a future breeding project. I happened to find Don Soderberg of South Mountain Reptiles had a 2017 female still in stock. Don was awesome to deal with as recommended by some of his past customers I know. This is my new girl Clover.

Of course on par with my luck of ordering snakes recently, there was some issues. So I now also have this pretty 2018 snow tesserae from Don. I'm thinking she might get named Winter.

Please excuse my ignorance but I am very new to the concept of corn breeding, can you please explain the 0.1/0.01 to me?

It's an easy way to indicate the sex of a snake, especially in advertising:

1.0 is a male
0.1 is a female
1.1 is usually a sexed pair
1.2 is a trio one male and two females
2.1 is called a reverse trio two males and one female
0.01 usually means an unsexed snake. I've seen it as 0.0/1 also.

#%^@&*^ is American slang that means nothing that you were really hoping for has hatched.

melody · Oct 31, 2018

Great. Thanks for info. This forum is so interesting. We currently have 3 corns;
1.0 Motley (not 100% sure which)
0.1 Normal corn
0.1 Albino (also not 100% sure)

We are waiting patiently for our first clutch of 9 eggs to hatch (Motley x Normal).

I am so super excited as I have never had snakes before.

We also have a few others; 2 pythons, 1 boa, 1 milk, 1 kingsnake.

I will be asking for so much more advice.

There is a wealth of knowledge on the forum. Use the "search" function to read prior posts regarding any topic. I've found that it works best if you don't include too many key words. Unfortunately, many of the contributors no longer keep corn snakes, but their experiences are still available to us via forum posts.

x2 on everything twolunger has said. It's also helpful to read through all the stickies which are a wealth of info at the top of each sub section.

This is mouse and she is getting into the Halloween spirit.
