Hi, I haven't posted for a while, but would really appreciate your advice on this. Mr Ripley had a bitty shed last time, 6 pieces with a bit retained on tail ( which I was able to remove) , so I've decided to get some moss. He is in blue and so I put it in his viv yesterday. It is damp and I...

Mr Ripley has had an amazing shed today and I just missed it!!! His last 2 sheds have been in quite a few pieces although always found tail tip and eye caps. Today in one piece except for the absolute tail tip. I will check him tomorrow as leaving him chill now. Thought I'd try and upload couple...

Since last shed 4 weeks ago Mr Ripley has been much more active and burying in aspen quite a bit. Before I used to have to wake him up almost from in his log to get him out (with no problems ) . Now he's up and at the glass and last night he rattled when I first touched him.....no striking at...

I have just returned from 2 weeks holiday ( the first in 15 years) and we had someone move in to take care of my 4 cats and Mr Ripley my corn. We asked specifically (and left signs on the door) for the cats not to be allowed in Mr Ripleys room. Although all was fine on our return and the first...

Hi, I hope this doesn't sound crazy, but last night when I got mr Ripley out his head seemed a different shape, like flatter but wider at the sides (jaw area). He also seemed very fast ( more than usual) .ive been taking a lot of new herbal tablets and wonder if I could be giving off a...

Hi, I hope this doesn't sound a silly question, but how long can you freeze mice for? I know some people feel that once something is frozen it's ok for a very long time. I personally don't like to keep any human food frozen for much longer than 3 months, so am doing the same for my corn. Am I...

Thought I'd post a couple of latest pics of Mr Ripley taken 5 days ago.

Hi, well I can't believe I've had Mr Ripley for three months now. I read the posts on here all the time but as things have been going well I've had no questions to ask until now. I've been amazed at his temperament he is great, but was wondering why sometimes when I get him out he is in a hurry...

Hi, When I adopted my corn I was advised that there was no need for a thermostat on the heat mat. However I've been having temp probs and the mat was old that I had acquired with the tank. After reading loads on here I realize it is definitely best to have one. So have brought a new slightly...

Hi, Well 4days ago cloudy eyes. Sunday eyes fine. Went to work today, home this evening to Mr Ripley has shed. I am worried thought as it's in 10 seperate pieces. He's now gone in to his log to hide. There is an obvious tail complete but really difficult to identify all the pieces. First shed...

Hi, I've been trying to download some pics of mr Ripley since I got him 3 weeks ago. Fingers crossed this time. If it works can you please tell me if he's a normal? And if he's eyes look cloudy? Thanks

Hi, Thank goodness you guys are there, I have read so much conflicting advice ( book/web pages/ pet shops) ... Think I'll stop looking and just get info from here. So I've had Mr Ripley for 3 weeks now and I wish I could stop worrying... He's due a feed today but day before yesterday he's eyes...

Hi, this is just my second post as new to corn snakes and new to forum. I am really stressing about a couple of things and there is such conflicting advice on the net and friends advice and the books I've read. So Mr Ripley has been great (adult we think about 7 yrs) but I live in jersey United...
