As the title states I am a transplant from Australia where corn snakes can only be found in zoos, so being able to keep them privately here in the USA is cool as heck. I am Brett and have been keeping a wide variety of herps since I was 14 (20 years already :cry: ). I have become totally...

Straight up, I have not seen enough adult amels to tell if what I have is normal or some "bleeding" of colour so I will explain ....... I have a 2 1/2 year old amel stripe female, possible het for bloodred (among others), this I know to be true as Jim H (her breeder) is reliable. The colouring...

I have heard and read that a few breeders have produced ultras and ultramels without knowing it. Is there any way visually to tell these apart and how? I will be the first to admit I do not understand the significance behind these genes. Thanks in advance for helping me get this straight...

I deliberated for a while as to where to post this (here or in husbandry) and decided on here (obviously) as this is a partial "vent" thread. Personally I am frustrated that there is allot of "advice" to totally avoid the stick on type thermometers as they don't work, or are highly inaccurate...

Simple curiosity here, it is common practice to not handle a snake for 48 hours after feeding. One large variable to hatchling feeding is frequency. As we all know everyone has their own schedule, some feed as often as every 4 days, while others every 7 and all in between. Everyone has their own...

I fear I am running out of options and time with a hatchling. I have offered f/t small pinks, live day old pinks, brained, sliced pinks, anole scented pinks and even a head of a small pink, ..... still he refuses everything and is desperately thin and becoming more lethargic every day. His full...

First off I would like to apologise for starting a new thread as the original title "feeding after brumation" is not relevent, however some of the "progression" of that threat has lead to this. Just to recap; The 4 year old pair that were continually housed together and kept at a constant temp...

Hey everyone, To cut a very long story short I have a 4yo pair of corns, never bred or even brumated for that matter, I am experimenting with the "off season" breeding. They have just been brumated (by me) for 10 weeks and are about to be warmed (by the time you read this I will have been...

Did you find your spilled butter yet? I would be interested to hear how that is going.

I have a question I cannot figure out and would love some input. (I am not the sharpest knife in the draw) :( I have had no luck figuring out the genetics behind both the bubblegum and "neon green" snows. I know there must be hypo in there somewhere, but hypo white is ummm .... white. :shrugs:

I would love some advice on what happened to the mice. One female in a colony gave birth and all was fine, after removing the pinkies she refused to eat. OK, that didn't worry me as I thought it may be post natal stress. Them I noticed she looked "wet". This wet look continued to spread over her...

To cut a very long story short, I have 3 two year olds that have to share a feeding tub for now, all though they are fed separately. All have been excellent eaters and never refused a meal until now. Only the male has refused his last 2 meals which is not like him at all. These few missed meals...

Sorry for the bad picture quality but I had to share these guys I got from Dianne. I think they are pretty dayum cool, THANX !! :cool: (male first, then the female), both un-named to date.

I am curious if anyone can help me out with what I have. It was sold to me as a blizzard however upon closer inspection I noticed faint yellow saddle outlines that are becoming more evident with each shed. Being unfamiliar with corns generally I would like to know if this is normal or if it is a...

I will say straight up, I have no idea what the rep power thing means or how it changes, no idea how you add the "list" of your snakes at the end of a post or how to edit (add in in my case) your location. Dammit, I think I'm addicted :sobstory: me

I am new to the world of corn snakes and have to say I am totally addicted. I see alot of threads of "predicted outcomes" and would love to know where I can find out about the genetic traits just for my own curiosity. I have 1:0 ghost, 0:1 pink snow, 0:1 opal, 0:1 albino stripe that will...

Hey all. I have been reading the posts and now am more confused than ever. It appears to me that most people leave the females IN the colony when they give birth. Is this the case? I have always removed the females prior to giving birth and now am really curious if I need to at all. Is their...
