Hello, all. I joined earlier this month, after being bit by the corn bug, and have been lurking until I had something useful or interesting to say. 
And now I do! After doing a lot of reading online--the FAQs here are amazing, and thank God for the search fucntion!--and buying and devouring Cornsnakes in Captivity by Don Soderberg, I went to a Bird and Reptile show today here in San Jose, and came home with Thorne.
He's 27 grams, and I'm honesty not sure how long, as after weighing him, I put him straight in his home not to be bothered anymore by me for the next week or so. The person I bought him from said he was on fuzzies, and has been a good eater since he hatched. And I got to watch him sexed, which was cool, as I pegged him for male before he was popped. Thank you again, forum!
Here's his home the day I set it up, though it has another hide now, of course, and a better thermometer. Just didn't want to bug him with the flash anymore to get another view!
I'm very excited about my first ever snake, and looking forward to him getting used to being here, and getting to know me! And, of course, I'm already planning what I want next. Lavender? Blizzard? There are so many choices, and so little room in my apartment...
