    Silly corn art

    Er, I hope it's okay to post artwork here... I was drawing today and doodled up a little caricature of my baby lavender, who is a high-strung little bundle of sheer terror. Just for the record, I don't actually put that many pinkies in the viv, they're just symbolizing the number of times he's...

    Local Herp Society?

    I've seen lots of people advise contacting your local herp society for various needs. My question is how? Where do you go to find them? A search of the phone book turned up numbers for my local Kennel Club and Equine Society, but no reptile club. The pet stores are clueless, and I don't know...

    Harvest Corn! (and a Lavender too)

    Time to show off my new babies! This little guy is a Harvest corn, which is a Sunglow x Creamsicle cross. I was very lucky to get one this year--God bless all the slackers who sign up on waiting lists and then pull out at the last minute! :rofl: Pardon the blurry pics, my digicam isn't the most...

    UPS and live delivery

    I'm expecting two new hatchlings later this week, and naturally I'm concerned about them getting here alive. Both babies were rather pricey, and it doesn't help that they're being shipped by UPS, which has a long history of mangling and losing my packages. My question is about the breeder's...

    Why is my corn so unusually small?

    I hate to add to the flood of "how old is my corn" type posts, but all the discussion lately about size and age has got me worried about my own corn. I received my snake (a male normal motley) in mid-March. I stupidly forgot to ask the breeder how old he was, but I assumed he was an '03 because...

    Breeder list?

    Does anyone know if a list of online snake breeders exists anywhere? I want a 2004 hatchling, but I'm having trouble finding the kind of corn I want. Google isn't helping much.

    Harvest corns?

    Just wondering if anyone has any pictures/info about "harvest" corns. It's a cross between a creamsicle and a sunglow, and it's caught my interest. There's an absolutely gorgeous picture of one at cornsnakemorphs.com, but I've seen another pic of one that just looks like a regular creamsicle...

    How long on pinkies?

    My baby corn is eating great, and growing like a weed. But I'm not sure when exactly I should move him up from pinkies to fuzzies. Right now, a pinky makes only a small bulge in his belly. Would it be okay to feed him multiple pinkies instead of one fuzzy? I still have a ton of pinkies left (I...

    Wild Anery in Virginia!

    I caught my first snake of the season this morning, and to my luck, it was a corn! It was a little Anery, maybe a year old or so judging by length. Strangely enough, Anerys seem o be almost as common in my area as normals... I wish I could have snapped a picture, but I was at work at the time...

    Silly snake tricks!

    I snapped this photo at 5:30 am this morning, and it was too funny not to share. It's my kid doing his roller coaster impression! He's got his tail braced against the thermometer, but other than that, it's just sheer glass he's holding onto.

    How much belly heat?

    I fed my baby for the first time this morning; he gobbled the pinky down with no problems. But I'm worried about how he's going to digest it, because he won't go anywhere near his warm hide. Since I've had him (5 days), he's spent 100% of his time in the cool hide. I measured the temp of the...

    Tongue flicking?

    I was just wondering, what is a snake thinking when it flicks out its tongue? Obviously, I know that's how snakes taste their environment, but I mean from a behavioral standpoint. I'm asking because my new baby, who I've had for 3 days now, never flicks his tongue out. All of my experience with...

    Snake Steak Sausages

    Does anyone have experience with the Snake Steak Sausages from T-Rex? I underestimated how much my family would freak out at the idea of frozen mice in the freezer, so I'm desperately trying to figure out how I'm going to feed my snake once I get it. I think my family might actually tolerate...

    Heaters and acrylic tanks?

    I went to the pet store earlier today to plan out my supplies and get an idea of how much everything would cost. I was looking at the under-tank heaters, and I noticed that the package had a big warning not to use them with acrylic tanks. I had been planning on using a plastic tank (a Critter...

    Online breeders?

    Heya! I'm going to be getting a corn soon as my first official pet snake. I'm planning to buy it online and have it shipped to me, as the only pet store in my area is a rather dirty, untrustworthy kind of place. Can anyone recommend some reputable online breeders? I'm especially interested in...
