I noticed a black dot on the top of Roxies head recently an now it has fallen of and there is a fleshy looking hole in her head. Should I worry? She is acting normal and just ate. Sent from my SM-N981U using Tapatalk

Well our daughters snake cheeto is missing. We've looked ALL over and sadly can't find it. She's heart broken since she'd only had it for a few weeks. We are assuming it's because the lid was just a standard lid with out clips and the lil thing just pushed it enough to get out. Shes put out a...

She just shed and I can see the center spots are getting a more "peach" tint to them! Tank light and natural light Sent from my SM-N981U using Tapatalk

I honestly didn't know where to ask this question. In the long run it really doesn't matter as we won't be breeding but how can you determine the gender of your snake? We were told Roxie is a girl because they tend to be larger than males. I'm just not convinced the petsmart staff is that...

Roxie had her 1st shed (to us) in front of us today!!!! The kids were soooo excited. She is 17 inches long and her shed came off perfect! The 1st pic is fresh out of shed Sent from my SM-N981U using Tapatalk

So our baby has been striking lately and I'm not sure what to do. Should we hold her less, more? Approach differently? She hides a lot so we have to search for her. We have a tank that opens from the front so it's not as easy to grab her from her midsection. Sent from my SM-N981U using Tapatalk

My daughter is in love with Roxie so much she asked if she could use her allowance to get her own snake. We let her choose between a milk snake and corn snake and she chose this lil corn snake. She looks orange and deep red/brown in natural light. "Her" name is Cheeto Sent from my SM-N981U...

So the heating in our tank wasn't consistently staying at 80⁰ so I did purchase a heat light. I did some searching for best substrate type and levels and ended up taking out a considerable amount of dirt. I also took out a few of the logs. We are now at 82.5 on the warm side and 76 on the cool...

Let me start by saying Roxie is our 1st snake ever. In the past we had this set up for frogs. It sat empty for roughly 10 months. Since the environment was established more like a terrarium we tweaked it when we put her in it to be more suitable for a snake. She seems comfortable and did eat...

Not sure of morph but meet Roxie Sent from my SM-N981U using Tapatalk

Our family is new to the snake world and we just brought home our girl Roxie yesterday. Any help with color and pattern would be appreciated. I'm assuming she's a coral Okeetee but I'm not 100% as we got her from a pet store and she was classified as a fancy (albino) corn snake. So far she's...
