    BP question - stuck shed or scale rot?

    Had a question about my new BP but wasn't sure which forum to post in, and knew the Health Issues forum was primarily for corns.. hope this is alright. Anyway I got Uli about two weeks ago at a pet store, and noticed this funny thing on her head... I'm hoping it's just a stuck shed? (Her tank...

    R.I.P. Simon

    I woke up this morning and Simon was curled in the middle of his tank, which was unusual because he always hides. I was worried because he's gotten so skinny over the last few weeks - backbone showing, and skin folds. But he had had two regurges, ate two half-pinkies a week apart, then refused...

    Hatchling Non-feeders vs. New Non-feeders?

    Should a new non-feeder (as in, has fed successfully before) be treated the same as a hatchling that's never fed successfully? My little one had two regurges in my care, then ate a half-pink two weeks in a row, then refused his last two feeds (three days apart). One was a whole pink cut into...

    How often should he shed?

    I've looked around in the archives but couldn't find a solid number on this. I've had Simon for five weeks, he's (supposedly) about six months old, and he hasn't shed in my care. He weighed ten grams when I took him to the vet on Oct. 15th, but that was after three weeks of regurges. He's had...

    2nd regurge

    I fed Simon an extra-tiny pink yesterday after a 9-day hiatus from his first regurge. I really had my hopes up, as it all seemed to go well... left him every bit alone for a few days of resting and digesting. My heart sank tonight when I woke up to hear him regurging. How long can young snakes...

    Still worried about Simon

    So, I heeded everyone's suggestions about helping Simon recover from his regurge on Saturday. He's been in his tank since then, no handling, and I added an extra heat lamp to get the ambient temps up in there. I also added a few more hides so he can feel more comfortable. I am planning on...

    Annie and Simon

    I've already posted a few times, but I might as well introduce myself formally. I'm Annie, a first-time corn snake owner from Fort Collins, Colorado... and this is Simon, my 2008 striped-motley anery (thanks to those over in the photo forum for helping me better understand the morph!): He...

    Motley and Stripe?

    Hello, Just picked up my first corn snake at a reptile store last week and he was labeled as a motley anery... but he's awfully stripey! I know that stripe is an entirely different gene, but my question is whether his patterns will change as he sheds and grows, into the more typical...

    Regurgitation 3 days later?

    Hello, I am a first time corn snake owner, and tried to find an answer to my question elsewhere on the forums but didn't see anything that quite matched my situation. I got a young (3-5 monthish?) motley anery from a local reptile store and he seemed to be doing really well until yesterday. I...
