Quick question... Recently the past two times I have gone to the store I buy my feeders from they havent had any F/T mice (or at least the size that I need) MoJo is on hopper sized mice. The guy offered me a rat pink to try so at least he could eat. He said he has lots of them but no F/T...

My 11 month old Classic MoJo feeds on a hopper every Sunday. He has been a very good feeder with the exception of two weeks when he was in blue. My question is... How long does it take your corns to deficate after eating? MoJo doesnt seem to deficate until anywhere from 5-7 days after eating...

So I am very panicked right now.. My 7 year old son was holding MoJo he put him down to watch him slither on the floor and he started going into a crack at the bottom of my stairs to get into my staircase. My husband grabbed his back end before he completely slipped into the hole. He is fine and...

Ok so I hooked up my Zoo Med 500R thermostat today. I hooked it up to my new UTH (with new reptile carpet over the UTH). Before this I only used a heat lamp with an incandescent bulb in it. When my air conditioner is on in my house it keeps the warm side at 80-82degrees. I thought it needed to...

I know two weeks does not seem to be very long for snakes to not eat but I am getting a little worried (ok a lot) because the last time he ate was Monday of Memorial Day Weekend. I wouldnt be that concerned because I know snakes can sometimes not eat when they are in blue and mine has been for...

Ok so Ive posted enough here about my little boy MoJo. He is our first snake ever and we have only had him for about two weeks. (BTW thank you to everyone for humoring my "first time Mom jitters") Ive taken some pics but it has taken me forever to get them up, so here they are.... MoJo is a male...

I thought we had an ESCAPEE!! I went to get MoJo out of his viv and looked under his favorite hide, no snake. I lifted his cool hide, no snake. Ok so I thought since he's been exploring his viv alot more these past few days maybe hes under his driftwood, NO SNAKE! (Ok now is where the panic sets...

Ok I have a really nice piece of sandblasted twisted grapevine in my viv. It does have natural holes in it that go through the center of it (not holes that he could hide in , just pass through) My question is...will a corn go through a hole with its narrow head if its body is too wide for the...

My MoJo is in blue as of two days ago. He refused his meal last night so I will wait til next Sunday. My tank is at 46% humidity (low for some reason??) and he is in his cool hide for the first time since we got him a week and a half ago. I did not know I needed spagnum moss for him while he is...

Ok so I have had nothing but normal experiences with my snake for the last week and a half I have had him. I got him Friday of Memorial Day Weekend, so 9 days ago. I fed him that Monday night very easily and successfully I may ad. I really want to get him on a Sunday feeding day because that is...

Ok so Ive been reading that a hide shouldn't be too big..snakes like to be able to touch the sides with their body. We've been using a terracotta pot with a hole chipped in the side (the size was kinda big for him he's only 9 mos old). Sure enough, every time I pick up his hide he is smooshed up...

So I figured out how to resize my pics so I could post them here! Here is my 1.0 Normal het for Hypo Aug '07. Can everyone tell me your opinion? Will he stay that beautiful tannish color or will he turn orange? I have only had him for a week now and he is the sweetest snake! I really lucked out!

Not sure if this is the right place for this thread. Im a newbie so please accept my apologies if it isnt. I was wondering if some one could explain to me what things like 1.2.0 mean? I see it at the bottoms of peoples signatures and I know it has something to do with how many males/females...

Hello Everyone! I am so glad to be here! I have been poking around for a little over two weeks now and just recently started posting. I am a first time snake owner from Southern New Jersey. I got my corn last Friday he is a Normal het for Hypo Male - 9months old. His name is MoJo. I bought him...
