So it's been a while since I could log on here and boy have I missed it! Since most of you probably don't remember me, I'll re-make my introductions. I have a normal corn, my newly aquired albino corn, a sonoran gopher, and a newly aquired ball python. The reason for my post today is on behalf...

I've been with my daughter's dad for about 4 years. Well we split up(to keep a long story short) about a week ago and I just don't know where to start:confused:. For some reason he's going to keep the house and car and money and I have to go out and get a job(he's been the one supporting us for...

Well I took my usual trip to the reptile store for Eddy's food, and I fell in love. I just couldn't leave without her. She's an '07 Sonoran Gopher snake. She has an attitude out of this world(part of the reason I got her)! I've not been bit yet, but she hisses like crazy and her tail seems to...

One of my son's pet mice has developed a cyst looking thing near it's back leg/butt area. She seems to be having a rough time getting around and her breathing seems strained. I talked to the reptile store(not where I bought her, but that's where I got her replacement) and the owner says it's...

What is the most active snake(non-venomous)? Basically, what kind of snake would I get if I wanted to see it out and about in his viv often? My corn comes out only when he thinks I'm not looking, otherwise he's in his hide. I was wanting a snake that the kids can watch move around in its viv...

Eddy escaped! :awcrap: He likely got out last night because I didn't see him this morning before school(not unusual, he likes to burrow) and when I got home and checked about 8 hrs later, he was for sure gone. I looked everywhere in his viv and no luck. My boyfriend(who surprisingly helped in...

My neighbor(who just had to get a snake after she saw Eddy) got her first corn about a month or month and a half ago. It was only about a month or less old when she got her and only weighed about 14 grams. Well I watched her weigh her today and she's at 59.6 grams and is REALLY fat. I asked her...

Sorry this is so off topic and really long, but I'm really ticked off and need some advice. First off, our 96 Voyager started to act up and we thought it was the thermostat, so we replaced it. That seemed to help for about 2 weeks then it started overheating again. It didn't really ever seem...

Eddy seems to be in shed constantly. It's only about 4 days or so after he sheds before he goes into blue again. Is this normal? I've searched and can't find anything about shedding frequency. I just recently got access to a scale and he's only 26.4 grams(last week). He's just got done shedding...

There's this beautiful ball python at the reptile store I go to and they're giving him away. The reason...he's mean...really mean. I held him and he only bit at me twice(not good considering I only held him about 5-10 minutes). He was brought to the store by his owner who couldn't keep him, but...

Well I cleaned out the mice cage in the kids' room tonight(the mice that aren't snake food :grin01: ) and got a wonderful(sarcastic) surprise. When I bought the stupid things, I thought I was buying 3 males....somehow they must have heard 2 males and a female because that's what I got. And boy...

I heard there's one in mid August, but I don't remember a date. Does anyone know when the dates of upcoming shows are? I've been wanting to buy my next corn, but since I'm only getting one, I wouldn't want to have it shipped(it'd be crazy to pay the same for the snake as for shipping). So I'm...

I've read that the snake has to be 2-4 yrs old before you can start breeding them. I was wondering how you know if they're ready to start breeding. Do they reach maturity at the same time or does one mature faster? I recently read a thread(searching for answers to my question) and it said the...

I literally just now figured out punnet squares and the basics of corn snake color genetics. I have been racking my brain for weeks now and I think I've got it. :dancer: But wait...I forgot all about markings(stripe, motley,.....). I've searched and searched and I've found nothing regarding...

Here's a few of the kids playing with Eddy before his meal tonight. Then there's a few of him eating. I know...he's a butt muncher. :shrugs:

Has anyone heard of these? I have this nifty thing on Firefox that lets me "stumble" onto different sites and it brought up this . I've been wanting a boa, but I didn't want a huge one. This one sounds PERFECT!!

I'm considering breeding my cornsnake when he/she is old enough(won't be for a few years..still a baby), so that way I have plenty of time to study before trying. I am going to have he/she sexed today, and I plan to buy the opposite sex some time this summer. I was mainly wanting both to be...

I have heard of people using corn, as in the corn you feed cows, as bedding for their corn snake(sounds appropriate ;) ). I was also told it's safe to feed them with corn as bedding because it's safe to ingest. :shrugs: Has anyone done this? Seems a whole lot cheaper if it works(besides the...

"You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to ________ again." I noticed that other people have got the same message, but there's nothing about what it means. I also searched and didn't find anything.

Eddy ate tonight(last time he ate was on Friday). I put him in his box with 2 pinkies and left him alone for a minute, then I got a call to get my kids from grandpa's. I left and we were gone about 2 or 3 hrs. When I came home I found 1 dead mouse and one pissed off corn. I opened the lid and he...
