I posted this question in another thread I had, but only 1 person has responded, so...... Last night was day 73 of incubation for me and I went to check on the eggs. All were pretty firm except for 1. I lifted it up and yolk was leaking from the bottom of the egg. I couldn't even tell where...

Lay date was June 9th between a sunglow motley and a normal. I've been waiting ever so patiently - I'm not sure how everyone does it. Originally there were 16 eggs and 3 went bad. I checked on the eggs again this weekend and they were all very solid (not rock hard, but not really squishy)...

I have a 2 year old female cornsnake who's clutch is due to hatch at any time. I took her out of her cage yesterday and the first thing she did was "sneeze". I've done the search thing to look for assistance, but most had posted that there was mucous coming from the nose. This isn't the case...

I finally found some vermiculite at a local hardware store and took my eggs out of the peat moss I had originally bought. I currently have the container on a heat mat which is on the underside of a glass aquarium. The temperature directly above the heatmat is about 89 degrees. The probe...

I came home today to find that my "male" had laid eggs. I remember putting my 2 snakes together a couple of months ago while I was cleaning cages, so it was a very big surprise. I've been running all over town and both Home Depot and Lowe's is telling me that vermiculite is discontinue and...

I was on a website about a year ago that had Growing Up Mice packages, meaning that you could buy lets say 15 pinkies, 15 small fuzzies and 15 large fuzzies. I can't remember the site I was on though or the name of the company. I've checked out Rodenpro however 100 pinkie mice for me just...

Do some snakes go off feed during winter months? If so, for how long? I live in Oregon and it's getting colder & colder outside. I keep my house about 70 degrees, snakes cage is 85 on the warm side, around 75 on the cool side, however he has refused food for the past two weeks. My snake just...

All the do-it-yourselfers on here. Here's my situation. I have a 20 gallon long tank where the lid slides in, has grooves on the side and you just slide the lid on, however there is nothing to lock the lid in place. The snake cannot push the lid up however could he could possibly wedge...

I picked up a sunglow motley about 3 months ago, age of snake is about 4 months old eating fuzzies. The snake will not eat unless blood is present on the mouse. Has anybody else ever had to debrain the mouse for EVERY feeding? I've tried both frozen & live and the snake will check the mouse...

I bought a rheostat that has 2 plugs in it to control temperature. I have 2 tanks side by side, 2 uth's plugged into the 1 rheostat. There is a 10 degree temperature difference. I got home the other day and one tank was around 81 degrees, the other over 90 and I can't seem to bring it down...

I couldn't wait for the reptile show to come in a couple weeks and ended up in a Reptile store that I've had good dealings with for the last couple of months. Ended up buying an Albino Motley, gorgeous little snake. Brought him home on Friday and have left him alone since. Monday night I took...

Hello all!! My cornsnake is about 4 months old now, 22 inches long. He's been on hoppers for the past 6 weeks, but there is barely a bulge now after eating and very active afterwards. I think 2 hoppers would be to much for him. Is it okay to feed 1 hopper and then maybe a fuzzy too? His...

Just picked these guys up last night. Wondering what the morph of the red snake is?

My corn is now 4 months old, about 25 inches long. For the longest time he had just been eating 1 pinkie every 5 days until I took him to a Reptile shop who scolded me for underfeeding my snake. I'm new, didn't know any better since their neck is so small, I didn't think he could handle it...
