Does anyone know of any good research on the causes of corn snake colour variation in the wild? I'm specifically looking for journal articles or sections in any books that may have been published on the topic. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I hope someone can answer this quickly .. I just gave Fen a mouse, and it's taking him forever to eat it. It doesn't look like it's going down, it just looks like the mouse is folding in his throat. I mean that every time he tries to advance down the mouse, it doesn't look like it's going...

I would like a pewter hatchling, and shipping to Canada preferably :) My friend wants to get a snake and it seems I've turned him on to corns. After much, much searching, he has decided on a pewter. I agreed to track one down for him haha. Can anyone help out? If anyone with pewter babies...

My first health problem with the little guy and I'm kind of really nervous .. Here's the story. I was feeding him this morning, and I guess he was super excited because as I was lowering the mouse into his box, instead of waiting until it was at his level he leapt up to grab it, missed, and bit...

I'm a little concerned about my heating pad. It's the Zoo Med heating pad for 20 gallon tanks. I bought my first one a little over 8 months ago. When I checked it two weeks ago it was at 67 degrees, and wouldn't budge so I figured it was broken. Replaced it with another Zoo Med heating pad...

Any 2011 breeding plans for these guys? I've been looking around but haven't really been able to find anything. Maybe I'm missing it :eatpointe Would love to get my hands on one. I think they are just beautiful. Never thought I'd say that about a yellow snake! :p (Also.. any Hypo Pewters or...

The other day I had to stop in at my local pet store to pick up some fuzzies for Fen. Before I left, I stopped beside another customer near the door to look at a beautiful Boa that's been there for a couple of months. We started talking and he asked if I owned anything. I told him and was met...

Decided he needed some extra shade ... And some more, just for fun. Belly More interested in the camera than getting his picture taken .. Finally sat still for 0.3 seconds. I love this little guy. Hopefully I can get a new camera soon and take some good pics of him. I have my eye...

I just want to find a Silver Queen with a diffused pattern, no other differences. Do these critters exist?? :shrugs: Would this be the same thing as a Bloodred Silver Queen? I've only seen pictures of babies, so I don't know what they look like when they've matured, or if they have any other...

Baby corn had mites about three weeks ago. Seems to be all cleared up now, but someone at the pet store recommended Nature Zone Mite Guard to sprinkle at the bottom of the viv for, you know .. "just in case". I'm asking you guys first. Yes, no, maybe so? Has anyone ever used this stuff, or had...

Alright, today marks one month since little Fen has come in to my life and I can honestly say that I love him to pieces! Here's a quick month in review: brought little snakey home, that day he got horribly stuck in duct tape (vegetable oil to the rescue!), had his first feed a few days later...

I handle my baby snake about 3-4 days a week, and the rest of the time I'm letting him digest his meals. He's usually awesome, not one bit aggressive, and just likes to cruise around all over me. But sometimes (I think four times so far), he will try to take a bite out of me, only on the palm or...

I love this forum, as it gives me something really (not) productive to do during my 12 hour desk shifts ... and also because it allows me share certain .. interesting experiences, like this one. Being a first time and slightly naive snake owner, I figure that the best to cover up that little...

So, a funny thing happened to me today. I was talking to a guy I work with about my new baby, and where I got him from, etc. And apparently, after passing some information back and forth, we realized that his two corn snakes are my Fen's mommy and daddy! Pretty cool! .. until we started talking...

Hello everyone I’ve been lurking this site since I got my little guy about two and a half weeks ago, but I just got around to joining now! His name is Fen and he’s a regular baby corn, about 10 or 11 inches, that I picked up from an exotic pet store just down the street. I’ve wanted a snake ever...
