It all started when we got a pet corn snake, Jack, about 13 years ago. He is so friendly (never tried to bite, even as a baby), a great eater, and very healthy. When he started going off food every breeding season and trying to escape, we decided it would be fun if we got a female and bred them...

So this year, with everything going on, our male and female didn't get put together at their usual time (March). However, they started acting like they wanted to be together in May and we decided to give it a try. They seemed interested in each other (we've never seen them breed but they have...

So, I've still never hatched out a snake egg. This is the furthest I've gotten. Sorry for the sad picture, but I had a few questions about the baby. My female laid 25 eggs this year and only one egg made it to the hatch date. This one died some time in the last couple days based on when the...

Has anyone else found that when they tried separating Corn Snake eggs it seemed to make them more likely to rot? I had 25 or so eggs and only 4 weren't slugs, so I tried to separate the eggs out as the slugs smelled something terrible and got moldy and the mold was spreading to the good eggs...

We have two corn snakes, one I assume is just an amel (Jack) and one I have no idea about (Jill). She was sold to us as a "red sunglo" but from my understanding sunglow's have red eyes. Jill has dark eyes. Maybe the name was just made up to sound good, but that has me curious what she really is...

So, it hasn't even been two days since my eggs went in the incubator. The majority look like slugs, but I wanted to wait and see, at least a little while. However, they already smell super bad. It smells like a week old dead animal has been rotting inside the egg container. At first I thought it...

So, while I have attempt to raise 2 clutches from our snakes in the past, they both died before hatching. I want to make sure the set-up is right for their third clutch so we can get some babies finally. Jill (the female) laid about 25 eggs last night/this morning. We just removed them, but...

We have 2 Corn snakes, a male and a female named Jack and Jill. The past three or so years we have put them together in the spring to breed. We got eggs twice (none of them hatched, but I think we incubated them wrong) and the last year we didn't get any (but we had just moved and that may have...

Jill finally laid her eggs! It's her first time laying and she has at least 15 of them too. This is the first egg she laid, a few days before the rest. I don't know if it will hatch, but hopefully the others will. Man she was protective of them, she was striking and rattling her tail against...

Hi everyone! At this time we only have two corn snakes, but hopefully that will change soon. Jack is our first snake we ever had, he is now a nice, full grown adult albino Corn. He is very tame, slow moving, healthy, and easy to handle. He will even exercise out in the yard. Jill, on the other...
