Hello, I am also kinda new to keeping snakes. I have kept my boas for quite some time but since I am soon moving to a place that will not accept them I am converting to corns. Rigth now I have 4 corns, 1 male, and beleived to be 3 females. My male is about 2, and the females are all hatchlings.
Cornelius
Cornelius is my male, I bought him off a vet a couple months ago. So buying him off a vet I am ensured he is in top health and most definatly a male, he is a regular corn, may have hidden genes, not sure.
Onyx
She is most definatly the smallest of the bunch, she hatched in july and is STILL only 8 inches. She is a problemed eatter though, only eats about once a week, but is use to be in a feeding bin for meal times. She is an Okeetee and is already showing bright red colours on her head.
Peach
She is a Reverse Okeetee with some other genes I'm not aware of, and has basically the opposite problem of Onyx, she LOVES eatting. She gets soooo excited when you put her in the feeding bin she rattles and attacks anything that gose in, including your hand while your trying to remove her afterwards, she is NOT being power fed, the same age as Okeetee and is pushing 20 inches.
?
My creamsicle is still not named, I know shes not a pure corn but oh well. She hatched August 19th, and shes 18 inches last I measured. She is a cross between a creamsicle and a snow corn, and never opposed a problem untill 2 days ago she regurgatated a meal for the first time. I beleive it was a combination of moving her into a different home, and introducing the feeding bin at the same time.
So just wondering, how differently should I be treating these snakes compared to my sand boas? I reasearched them and looked things up and know quite a bit of stuff but I'd rather get the info from other snake keepers just to be sure.
