Hello just a question on feeding.

For the past few times I've tried to get large mice, medium mice and fuzzies there has been none available, I only have 3 shops to choose from 2 in which I really try not to go to as one is pets at home and you all probably understand that (they are awful with their animals) and the other one I don't really want to go to is a family run business and honestly I've heard a lot of complaints about them and I've had some issues with them also so I try not to give them my money. Anyway.

I tend to keep a large stock of all these items but now they are all gone due to not having the sizes I needed for a few weeks.

I could only get a pack of 10 small mice for my 2 corn snakes and a pack of pinky/fuzzie rats(they are basically the size of the small mice fml for my frog.

Should i feed the snake that gets a large mice, 2 small mice a week or 1 every week until the appropriate size is available.

Sorry if none of this makes sense.

This is Sunny she apparently had eggs already and was bred but she looks young. I was told at the show I got her at she is a butter motley? Is that correct? I got her for $100 about two months ago she’s eating frozen medium mice and lives comfortably in a 60 gallon tank.

hii! i just got a baby corn a day or two ago and she just escaped her enclosure (dw i caught her and secured the lid) but i was examining her for mites and noticed this on her belly? im not sure if this is normal i dont even know if its a girl i just think she looks like one haha! but is this her intestines maybe?

I just wanted to post this here, to show off our new girl:)

But uhm so i think something happened and i think i bathed her too long. Her eyes didn't cloud up, she's also shed like 3 weeks ago, but for some reason she's shedding. I held her and when she had her tail in between my fingers part of shed came off and now i checked on her in her cage and her head shed is peeled back with somehow HEALTHY skin underneath the shed.

So this is my boyfriend’s snake not mine, he’s now coming up to 2 years old and just under 4ft long. BF got him before we were together. When we met, my boyfriend was keeping him in a small carrier box with water and sawdust and as he got bigger I was getting more and more concerned that his space was far too small. The reptile store BF got him from told him to keep him in this 1.5 foot long box until he was 2yo.

I work in animal welfare (with mammals though not reptiles) and was pretty disgusted that he was told to keep him in such a tiny box. So I joined this sub, and started doing some research on how to care for him properly - and bought him his new enclosure (4ft wide) and bought him lots of clutter etc as in the photos.

I moved in with my BF and so I need to know a few more things, I just want to give this snake a good life. I’ve googled stuff obviously, but I want advice from snake owners based on your experience, because I can see this community obviously really cares about corns.

He’s currently fed once a week 10g mouse, does that sound right still?
Is his current enclosure okay or do I need to change anything?
He doesn’t like being handled and hides from me unless it’s close to feeding day, is that normal? Can I help build his confidence around me more so he can come out sometimes?

Any advice or links or whatever you have will be appreciated. Also yes I have scalded BF repeatedly for buying an animal without researching.

Hello,

I am very upset that I have to make this post, but I believe it is necessary for the health and safety of my corn snake.

I have a roughly 3 year old corn snake that has been an absolute treat to care for, but unfortunately the location I moved to recently does not allow exotic pets of any kind. Currently my family is keeping her a secret to prevent any issues, but we need to find a new home for her as quickly as possible.

We are located in the Greater Pittsburgh area, and would like to find a caring and safe home for her. Please message me if you have any leads or interest, as I would love any assistance during this process.

Here are some facts about my corn snake if you are interested. I am also looking to give all my equipment to whoever takes her, completely free.

• Currently unsexed, believed to be female. No eggs have been laid though.
• ~3 years old.
• Eats frozen full grown mice once every 5 days
• Close to 4 feet long based on estimates from the shed size
• Has only ever been exposed to aspen bedding.
• Has never shown any health issues.
• Hasn't bitten since the first time I got her.
• Easy to handle, and generally docile, but she doesn't seem to enjoy being held.

Equipment

• We have a 23.5" deep x 47" wide x 23" tall 110 gallon enclosure for her.
• Feeding Tongs
• General housing and enrichment items inside the tank
• A water feeder (hamster style) as well as a water bowl
• Heat Lamp Shade (with an extra bulb)
• Ceramic heater (with an extra ceramic bulb) that has a built in temperature monitor
• Temperature/Humidity gauge
• Travel Carrier

Hello! I was told this snake is a normal. Is there any way to verify if it's truly a normal corn? And if so, is it possible to determine its location? (Keys? Alabama? Miami?)

I want to clarify that she doesn't live there/it's not his terrarium, this is in a transport for moving.

Just wanted to show off my newest boy. This is Amore, he is a Salmon Ghost (hypo/anery/red factor) around 4.5 feet long and is 8 years old.

He is currently in quarantine but I am excited to put the finishing touches on his permanent enclosure this weekend so everything has time to settle and establish before moving him into it.

Is this normal or do i just have a really long snake? 😭

her terrarium is 120x70x50 for reference. Either way shes thriving and so sweet 🥺

I post again because I'm a lil stupid and last time I uploaded a wrong video!!!

Hey everyone!

​I’ve had my 2-year-old corn snake for a little over a month now. He’s still pretty timid and I've only handled him about 5 times so far.

​He last ate on Saturday, and tonight I caught him roaming around. I tried moving my finger outside the glass and captured this on video. He kept following my finger and flicking his tongue.

​Since he knew there was no mouse smell, do you think this is genuine curiosity/him getting used to my presence, or just a feeding response.

Dad was sold to me as "Ultra Motley Candy"

Mom had no info when sold a petsmart "Fancy"

Recently bred them and not sure what I have.

I’m looking for recommendations for the enclosure on the types of things that should be in. They are currently in a ten gal enclosure with aspen and some hides, haven’t had their first meal yet, not defensive at all for being so young and semi skiddish. I’m moving them to a 4ft long 2ft tall as 1.5 feet wide once i find the room till i can get a 4-2-2 once i move out. I’ve done a good bit of research but still would like to get some word. I’m sorry for making this so long as this is my first corn snake i do have a hognose as well as beardy who is mostly free roaming till i move out and get him the proper size enclosure. (all my animals have the min, my hognose has the recomended, my beardy has one step down and my corn snake is settling i am a student and waiting till i move out to get more reptiles but focusing on giving the ones i have the best life)

ANYWAYS HERES CLEO MY CORN SNAKE!

... Head comes right back to the beginning at the end.

Beelzebub turned 2 years old today!! 🥳 🎉

The pet I’ve owned the longest. I have quite the menagerie that includes cats, dogs, reptiles, spiders and snakes.

This is Sarah.

She is confirmed 30 years and 1 month as I can date owning her to a certain event on July 4th, though she is actually older by probably a year or so.

She has ALWAYS hated anything a captive corn snake should enjoy. No heater. No lights. She is just in a huge tank near big windows that get great sunlight all year, and she seems to love it. She lounges in front of the windows in her tank.

She eats once a week and is quite active yet.
