Does anyone know of any endoparasites or ectoparasites that effect corns? are mites ecto or endo?? Thanks for your help!!

I'll keep this as short as possible.. basically not long ago Jynx shed. I left the shed in there because i'm still not having any luck taming him. Last night i fed him and while he was eating i pulled out the shed to check it was all ok. It was all in one piece, BUT there was dried blood on...

I posted ages ago that Jynx was striking at me and i was getting too nervous to pick him up.. Anyway, since then i have found he is at his calmest when he's in shed and i find it a lot easier to pick him up during this time. But every other time he's always really aggressive. For example...

At college i am studying animal management, and am currently having practicle sessions on the exotics section. On tuesday, one of my friends was holding one of the anery corns, and i came over and she was telling me how impressed she was with its head patterns, and i agreed, in fact, i said he...

I found Jynx's shed when i got home today and for the first time it wasn't in one piece, instead it was in three pieces, but pretty complete pieces. The eyecaps are on the shed but there seems to be the very very tip of his tail missing but its literally a dot missing off the end. As some may...

i am currently doing an assessment for college, and i am required to specify four different diseases/disorders in snakes. For one of these i have chosen septicemia. I know the cause, symptoms, and treatment, but i cannot find any information on the prevention of septicemia in snakes. Is there...

It has been 6 days since Jynx had his last meal, and today when i got home i checked on him and there was what first looked like poo, but it looks rather weird... it doesn't have any resemblance to a mouse and doesn't smell at all! It just looks a bit like intestines.... i'm pretty sure it isn't...

There seems to be a lot of 'my snake is being grouchy' threads at the moment, and im afraid mine is one of them.. The past week Jynx has been striking at me as soon as my hand enters his viv. I feed him outside the viv so surely he isn't associating my hand with food, and i handle him every...

I have a wooden vivarium which has 8 small round vents on the back. I am looking to get a background picture for the viv, and am wondering if by putting this up will block the vents and prevent proper circulation of air into the viv? I think it is common sense that it probably will block them...

Here are some photo's of Jynx having his feed after shedding the day before! Boy, was he hungry!! Now thats what i call a GRIN!!!! :grin01:

Finally i managed to get some pictures of my anery a (i think...) He shed this morning, he looks sooo pretty!! :cool:

I have done a search but have not found what i am looking for. For an assignment i am doing i need to identify any zoonotic/notifiable diseases that corn snakes are susceptible to. Can anyone help with this? Thank you in advance :cheers:

Finally, a picture of my corn, Jynx. He is in the blue, so he doesn't look as stunning as he usually is, i will try and post a pic once he has shed. From what i know he is an anery but if anyone disagree's please tell me!

Today, my snake had his second feed from me.. half of his body was under the aspen and because i had been handling the fuzzy i didn't want to pick him up incase he saw my fingers as food, anyway, he took it from me straight away. Problem is, as i have only fed him once before i was curious to...

Yesterday was my snakes first feed in his new home! I was convinced he would probably be too stressed to eat, but after a bit of wiggling the fuzzy he gulped it down! It was amazing to see how much his mouth could open, i saw him eat whilst he was still living in college, but i was sooo happy he...

Ok, well i brought my first snake home today, and he's been in his enclosure for a couple of hours now and he has burrowed under the substrate and he feels quite cold. He is on the cool side of the tank... is this normal?? Jen.

Hi there, I am currently setting up my Viv for my first corn.. I have a 4foot long hobbyist tank, which is wooden with sliding glass doors. I am confusing myself at the moment, because i know i have to put the uth inside the tank.. and from that i have a couple of questions that i hope...

Hey everyone, i'm new here so take it easy with me.... I should be expecting my new vivarium to arrive on friday. Here is a picture of it: (i hope that worked..) The problem is i am very worried that my corn will escape, and my house is awfully old and as it will be staying in my room...
