Snakes are the new sexy
I seem to be able to find facts about snakes having between 150 to 300 ribs and up to 400 vertebrae, but I can't find any specific information about corns. Out of pure curiosity, does anyone know?

It never gets old!
Sadly, Cleo's x-ray from last fall does not include her neck and the end of her tail. I did a quick count and got about 234 that included identifiable ribs. The tail vertebrae aren't attached to ribs. There were 28 of those on the x-ray before that cut off. So through not a complete count I think it gets us in the ball park.
