    Scales Flaking and Tiny Cuts

    Hello all, My corn is in blue right now. A few days ago, I noticed some clear scales flaking from him. These did not seem to bother him, and sometimes fluttered off on their own. Today I noticed two pin-point tiny red spots on him (I am nearly 100% sure these are not mites, but cuts of some...

    Strange looking feces

    So my corn snake had problems shedding, so I let him slither in a warm, damp towel for awhile. When I looked back, I found strange looking, cream coloured feces with little urates. This is the second time he has pooped since he last ate. What's wrong? The temperatures in his viv and humidity...

    Peeling scales, late shed

    So my corn snake has been shedding every 3 weeks consistently, but he had an awful shed on the 2nd of February and I got off all remaining shed as far as I could tell.

    Clear, thich liquid in terrarium...?

    My snake ate 2 days ago, and has not defecated as far as I can tell. However, I recently noticed a few drops of a clear, semi-thick liquid (thicker than water) in his cage and it has no odour, and no colour or milkyness. I do not know what this is or where this came from, and there is no feces...

    A few questions from a new snake owner

    I am a first time corn snake owner, and have a few questions. -Although my temperature gradient is what was recommended to me by a snake specialist (~75F on cool side, ~85F on warm side), I am only using heat lamps. Should I use an under tank heater as well? -What are the signs my snake is...
