Corn snakes don't need heat lamps. A heat pad on a dimmer set to 85 on the warm side is all the heating they need.
I've noticed someone here crossing corns and black rats. Would a male amel corn crossed with a female black rat make what I've seen here?
Because there's a free black rat at the shop. It was brought in wild caught. Probably less than a year old, unknown gender.
I've wanted a black rat snake ever since my uncle found one in his house. It suprised me how docile it was for being a wild (and large) snake.
I don't worry about that shop. I work there part time. I've never seen mites on any of the snakes. There is one distributor whose iguanas always have mites when they come in, no fault of the store owner. The mites are gone now. They got drowned.
This store is not a horrible store. The only thing is cohabbing, and theresonlybeen one instance of cannibal corns. The snakes that are cohabbed are monitored during feeding. Once in a while you might come across a sickly looking snake, but that's because it's a rescue that just needs some TLC.
The owner of the pet shop didn't catch the rat snake. Someone caught it and thrust it on her. People thrust stuff on her a lot. The black rat didn't just come in recently, it's been there for about a month or so.
Besides, I don't know of any reptile knowledgable vet. And mom would say it's a waste of money.
I saw a hybrid on the forums and I liked it. Practically everything I could breed my Amel to would just make normals. I don't want another Amel. I don't intend on becoming a breeder, I might just do it once. I don't care about making money. My friend has hatched snakes before. I do the breeding, she'll do the rest. I'm sorry if I come across rude sometimes. Look up Asperger's Syndrome. You'll understand me a bit better. Hopefully.
I really should go to bed now. Mom is coming home briefly tomorrow, then back to the hospital to be with grandma. Thanks to those who hoped for her health. She is recovering. I just hope the cancer stats away this time.
