I recently posted a thread about some snakes I have for sale. I was trying to sell them locally, but it appears I will have to ship. Can someone please tell me how to do this? I know how to PACK the snake for shipping, but I can't find a shipping company that ships reptiles. They all say no...

A few months ago I purchased a beautiful pair of candy cane corn snakes with the warning that the female might be gravid with a second clutch. Sure enough, she was! A few weeks after I bought them she laid seven eggs, one of which shriveled up after a few days (so we won't count that one). Of...

My female candy cane just laid her first clutch with me. Her boyfriend is also a candy cane, and both of them are pretty high red with some nifty frosting too! My question is, when the eggs hatch, how can I tell which babies are actually candy canes and which are normal amels? I want to...

My motley butter (who was apparently a CIA agent in a former life) has escaped AGAIN! She is too smart for the Loves' snake traps. She will enter the bottle, eat the pinky, and make her way out and hide again instead of getting stuck in there like she's s'posed to. Last time, I was lucky...

I purchased a breeding pair of candy canes this season and was told at the time that mom might be gravid already. Indeed, she was! She laid 7 eggs last week. I think the number is so small because this is her second clutch of the season. I need to call the breeder who sold her to me and...

Last month I purchased a beautiful proven pair of candycanes from a breeder at a show. I saw some of their hatchlings and they were beautiful too. At that time, he told me the female may be gravid with her second clutch. Well, he was right, she is, and very fat and healthy and ready to lay...

This is just an update on my sick snake, and a call for advice. It's been one month since shes's been able to keep food down. Her bacterial culture came back negative for crypto and other bacterial infections, but she's been on anti-biotics/anti-parisitics anyway. I've discontinued the...

Well, my sick motley butter guy has now escaped. I tell you, this little juvie is just bent on being a pain in my posterior. I've placed a few bottle traps around the area where he escaped and I'm hoping I'll see him in the morning. Obviously, any other advice on finding him would be...

I'm sure this has been asked before, but I did a search and couldn't find it. I have a yearling butter motley that has been put on baytril and metronidazde. Baytril, of course is an antibiotic, but I'm not sure what the other is and it isn't coming up on a search. Does anyone know what...

Alright, I've begun setting up a decent sized breeding operation, including building some shelves for my sterelite bins. (Plans and pics will be posted when I finish bolting htem together!) The only thing I have left to do is line my shelves with heat tape so my snakes have a heat gradient...

I'm about to significantly expand my collection and they will be living in sterelite bins. I usually use astroturf as a substrate, but with many snakes to deal with, I am considering switching to this Reptisand stuff. The idea is that you can spot clean it, much like that kitty litter that...

So here's a silly question: What's the deal with the breeder codes used for snakes? 1.0 1.1 etc etc. . . It doesn't seem too tough to figure out and I've got my hunch, but I'd like the official word from someone. Jamie out.

I tried to get a good picture but my camera wouldn't pick it up well. I'll keep trying though. For now. . . My corn has several spots on his back that look sort of like unshed skin, except they aren't. Anyone else have this problem and know what the deal is? Thanks, Jamie Lynn and...

These past holidays I did a lot of traveling. I didn't want to leave Jormungand alone so I got a nice big travel cage and took him with me everywhere. Aside from gettting fat from all the christmas candy I fed him, he seems no worse for wear. So I have two questions: 1) Any suggestions for...

This may or may not be a problem, but I've NEVER seen my corn snake approach his water dish, soak in his water dish, or drink water at all. I've even sneaked out in the middle of the night to watch him and see if maybe he drinks then. . .but I still haven't seen him anywhere near his water...

I recently switched from Repti-bark bedding to a cage carpet. The Rept-bark dust was pretty difficult to clean out of my aquarium and the cage carpets are really easy to clean. I also added an additional hidey place (a paper towel roll) that my corn seems to like better than any of his...

I suppose this could go in either the housing section or the breeder section, so I'm posting it in both. I have a '02 male het for butter corn named Jormungand. I'm looking into getting him a full butter girlfriend so that I can breed them in two years or so. I've been hesitating because I...

As the subject says, I am also having trouble viewing pics. Ditto me on a request to have the verification e-mail resent! Edit: I also can't acess my user profile or any of my member info. Thanks, Jamie Lynn
