Oh, Craigslist...

Haha... you're not helping me! Gah.. it is a nice cage... just too dirty looking but that is easily remedied. Hmmm.....
 
I've never had a corn that wouldn't eat f/t...even wild caught animals that I was rehabbing......I had a baby corn that someone brought me and it took f/t pinkies from day one until I turned it loose again a few weeks later.....most snakes (except those PIA balls) will take f/t. Even my wildcaught racer, coachwhip and cottonmouth takes f/t.....I'd get it and save it from the moron!
 
I'm looking for a job now to try to help support my new snake habit.... I very well may offer him less (and/or see if he will throw in another viv haha), but I have nothing until next pay-day right now so he would also have to wait. I may drop him a line tomorrow and see.....
 
Yikes, 7 years old and eating pinkies! I have that same water dish and my yearlings can barely fit in it.

Is this a corn snake??

It is a 4 foot corn snake comes with the tank an little accessor

The pic tell most doesn't come with much but a tank and mini log,two bowls an some fish cliff with holes

I'm not an expert on morphs...but this one just doesn't really appear to be a corn. Am I wrong?

Oh man, what a great deal!

I would consider this animal abuse. These poor snakes.

Is the issue the size of the enclosure? Or the lack of hide and water bowl? If it's because of the enclosure size, I would argue that it's plenty big, or even too big for a hatchling. If it's because if the lack of water bowl and hide, I've taken things like that out for pictures. Dint rush to judgement...
 
Those tails are looking skinny to me... I raised leopards for years, but I have been the proud owner of an African Fat-Tailed for a while now, and maybe my idea of the ideal tail has skewed...
 
Geckos I know nothing about but I did think they looked skinny. If so what a shame to have a whole collection and let them get like that.
 
Geckos are easy feeders, but they need to eat much more often than snakes (part of why I'm making the switch over: I was tired of my house smelling and sounding like a cricket colony). But there are ways of helping them gain back their weight quickly.
 
Those geckos are -very- skinny. As far as the crickets go, mine refuses crickets. She loves mealworms! I've been getting the vitabug kind from Petco - put about 5 in her dish per week...she's got a nice big fat tail :) Tried her on super worms, she won't touch those either...

That said, yeah, they are very skinny - not just the tails but the whole body...even if he just breed them I don't think they'd look that bad - and if he did just breed them he should be looking to get the girls and guys back up to a proper weight before attempting to sell them.
 
Oh, I just posted a thread about this, but I guess I'll post it here too. Look what I found on craigslist:

I could see how the one I posted could be confused for a corn snake but I would think after owning him for 8 years someone might have mentioned that it didn't look like a corn.

But someone people can't tell even the most obvious breeds apart. My best friend thinks all snakes look a like and would be confused and would think it's a corn snake too.
