just been cleaning out chione this morning.... cleaned her bowls,hides,logs etc... put fresh corn cob down and the the usual paper towels over the top... last thing to go in.. the snake.... yup, she seems to like it.. so much so that she did the biggest,runniest poop EVER all over the freshly...

i`ve been offered an adult GPR for a silly price - tank and stand included. to my eyes, they look to be very similar to corns - does this go for behaviour too? if they are pretty "cornlike" then i`ll be only too happy to add a five foot adult to my collection :)

I`ve owned my snow corn, chione, for roughly a year now, and in all that time she has been a calm, relaxed, almost timid little creature, but todays events have changed that for sure! Now, many of you out there have snakes of the same age as chione and are already feeding them on small mice...

i`ve not posted here in a while lately but would just like everyone to know that my snake and i are just getting alone fine still :) recently, Chione stopped eating.. refuseing to eat all last week and only taking one pinkie the week before... she/he/it also became very timid and spent all of...

.. cos i`d have caught a gem of a picture just now! It was feeding time for Chione, my 20" snow corn (growing an inch per week !)but at first she was reluctant to take her pinkies, and seemed to get a bit agitated with my efforts to encourage her. Well, i picked her up in my right hand to calm...

I know that a bath of cool-but-not-cold water has several benefits for cornsnakes but i was wondering just how is best to do it? I`ve given Chione a quick wash using a 12" saucepan full of water that was slightly warmer than room temp, held her in one hand and tried to get her interested.. she...

Just given Chione her first feed in her new home. i placed some paper towel on the floor of the tank, placed a pinkie on the paper and "rencouraged" Chione to investigate... her mouth opens and she grabs the pinkie by its bum and down it goes :) same story with pinkie number 2. i had a good...

Last weekend i set up a vivarium for a hatchling Amel (approx 14"). I`ve spent the week playing with settings and found the cool end of the tank hovers at 75deg through the day, dropping to 60deg overnight. This is achieved by a 60w heatlamp at one end running through the day and evening and a...

I have a choice of several different cultivars for my first corn and i`m just wondering what comnsiderations there are for choosing a particular morph. Are all corns the same in terms of behaviour/size/vigour (health etc) ? When choosing my snake what are the most important things? Obviously...

Well, I`m dead set on getting my first pet snake sometime within the next few weeks. Looked into it and decided i like the look and the nature of cornsnakes, even handled one (two actually, one 3foot adult and one 10" hatchling) and i`m rather looking forward to owning one of the splendid...

Went into a pet shop earlier today looking for an unusual pet. Now, Spider, no thanks.... Lizard,err not really, Scorpion, hmmm maybe... lets look... i looked,, wasnt much impressed (not exactly cuddly are they) At this point the shop keeper said he needed to remove a shed skin from his...
