i see lol, hes lovly guna need upgrading soon though

 

[cornsnakes101]

Yes he is I'm hoping to get a striped soon. But how old his he and what size tank is he in?

 

[phillip2]

hes around 1 and a half and a 24x12 x1 2 at the moment dont worry upgrading him soon.

Cool corn. Nice stripe

 

[phillip2]

thanks he is cool

 

[cornsnakes101]

hes around 1 and a half and a 24x12 x1 2 at the moment dont worry upgrading him soon.

Thats a 15 gallon correct? If it is you don't have to worry about upgrading him for a while, an adult corn can live happily in a 20 gal. long or a 30 gal. The 30 is if you have a bigger adult.

 

[phillip2]

ahh wlel at the moment he is about 2 and a half foot perhaps, can never see him straight out lol, so if he is a year and a half old when will he readch adult lenght and when will he need upgrading etc, hes still on pinkies :S

 

[cornsnakes101]

Its hard to tell since every corn grows differently but the average is three years when they reach about four feet. But you can upgrade at any time don't let me stop you. So I would say when he turns two or gets to three feet if you want to wait.

was it expensive? I rarely see striped corn snakes at a breeder pet store in minnesota and when I do they are over 100$

 

[harm781]

You should try to start upgrading him to small fuzzies otherwise I also would say a normal stripe.

 

[whippet]

He is definatly ready for fuzzies...even small hoppers. Very pretty normal stripe!

 

[4riscorn]

Wow...looks like my Layla...I named her that because it means Dark Beauty.

 

[Dreamsnake]

I love the stripes. I can't wait for mine to get that big.

 

[cornsnakes101]

Also at two and a half feet I would think he would be on fuzzies mines a foot and a half weighing 40 grams eating an 8 gram fuzzy no problem. Check out the munson plan if you haven't already It's a essential tool for a corn owner. Heres a link, http://www.cornsnakes.com/forums/showthread.php?t=50106

 

[phillip2]

[bapkate]

Lovely stripe! Do a search in the forum for 'Munson Plan' for a great feeding chart!

 

[phillip2]
