o.k.
Well four baby corns! Lucky you.
Random Suggestions:
1. House them seperatly. This can be easily accomplished. You can purchase small rubbermaid containers with holes drilled, and place 1/4 of each on a heat pad to give a warm area of 82-85. Cannabilism doesn't always happen but it can and does happen sometimes.
2. Make sure during shed time you raise humidity by spraying the enclosure, or pushing water bowl closer to heat source to raise it up.
3. Get them eating pre-killed pinkies, you'll be glad in the long run when you have to fed them larger mice with potentially dangerous teeth! Snakes aren't the "perfect" killers every time and accidents have happened.
4. Allow them 3-7 days to get used to their new homes before any feeding attempts are made.
5. Get "The Cornsnake Manual by Kathy Love" This is a priceless book for cornsnake keepers new and old!
good luck!
