Hey all, just had a question-- I have been feeding Kaven frozen pinks, and he eats them very readily and has never had a problem. This is the part of the question where I get to feel a little lame. I had his pinks out when I was rearranging my freezer a couple nights ago, and because I have...

What's a normal length of time for a snake to be in blue before shedding? I noticed Kaven was in blue about a week and a half ago; I made a moist hide for him with sphagnum moss, and he has a water dish on the warm side to assist with humidity, but he doesn't seem to spend any time over there...

Thank you all for your advice on my last post, but I have good news! My mother, seeing how upset I was at the thought of losing Kaven (I was over for dinner tonight, and started bawling whilst stirring the soup), has graciously offered to let me keep him at my parents' house! My parents are...

I'd hoped to never have to ask this, but... I'm going to be moving in a month and a half, and so far, I've called sixteen different apartment complexes. The only one that allows snakes is way out of my price range, so it looks like I may be adopting Kaven out for a year or so, to a friend of...

First of all: Kaven just had his second shed! I did as suggested, and offered him a damp hide of sphagnum moss when I noticed him going blue. I never SAW him use it, but his shed came out beautifully, so whatever he did this time worked! His color is actually going a little pink, particularly on...

I fed Kaven three days ago, and was handling him for the first time tonight, and noticed he seemed a little...well, bloated is the best word I can think of; like his lower abdomen was just...full. I wish I had a camera, but lacking that, the best way I can describe it is to say there's a...

I guess it would've made sense to do one of these first, huh? Well, I'm still relatively new, so here goes: My name is Laura, and I received my first corn as a gift for my twenty-fourth birthday from my best friend. I've had him for two months now. He's a lavender named Kaven (Gaelic for...

Hey everyone, Thanks for the advice on my last post! I'm happy to say Kaven has successfully shed (even if he wasn't thrilled about soaking in the water for half an hour) and the abrasion on his nose is almost gone. I had a question, though: I went to feed him tonight, and he seemed...

Hello all, I'm a new snake owner, having only recently acquired my first corn. He's a lavender named Kaven (Gaelic for "handsome") and is about 8 months old. I've had him for about five weeks, and he's eaten four times, very readily. He began to go blue about a week ago, and this is the first...
