    Winter Temp Issues

    I was having a hard time skimming through the search for temperature questions so forgive me if this post is redundant. It's winter time in Chicago and the only heating source I have on my tank is a 75 watt light bulb that is turned on only during day time hours plus the heat from the sun, if...

    Concerned About Shed

    I got my baby corn snake at least two months ago if not longer. I don't remember exactly. I am really concerned that it has not shed yet. The breeder said that the snake shed about a week before I got it. I keep the humidity in the tank between 60-65. I don't know if that has much to do with it...

    My corn is quite the climber

    I have read that corns usually are more of a ground dwelling type of snake and they don't spend much time hanging out in branches. I'm wondering just how accurate that is because my snake seems to be the total opposite. I think my snake thinks it is an arboreal snake because it spends the...

    Transferred to Larger Tank (baby corn)

    My baby corn snake has been doing a lot of roaming around, climbing, and recently exploring the gap between the tank and the lid. I figured since my snake is so active and is growing at a good pace, I might as well put Fluffy in it's forever home, a 40 gallon breeder tank. I have a bunch of...

    First strike

    I have had my baby corn for over a month now and it has always been really sweet, never once trying to strike at me. I saw it out and about in the tank a second ago so I figured I'd go in and let it out to roam for a bit but the little thing struck at me. It didn't strike with it's teeth at all...

    Aggressive behavior during feeding?

    I use to feed my 4 month old corn snake directly in the tank (I have repti bark) but then I added some branches and tied silk plants around them so it's harder to get to my snake to make sure it grabs the food. Now I bought a plastic container with "frosted glass" looking sides and a solid lid...

    Size of corn snake

    I got my corn snake when it was about 3 months old, according to the breeder who bred them in his own home. I have had my baby corn for about a month or so now. So it's 4-5 months old. My question is regarding size. I have seen people comment on here about their year old snakes only being a...

    Upset Snake

    My snake was the perfect, gentle snake for the first week or so that I had it. Then I accidentally made it throw up a meal. (I waited two days to handle it but for some reason it wasn't done digesting. Oops.) It seems like my snake has been more defensive since that happened. I added some...

    Hand Feeding, okay?

    I have fed my 3 month old creamsicle twice now since I have had it. Both times I fed the snake while it was still in the tank and I hand fed it by holding the tail of the pinky. My snake doesn't like to feed if I move the pinky around, as some people have suggested that I do, so I just hold it...

    Handling New Snake

    I just got my baby corn snake last weekend. I fed it on Monday and did not handle it at all on Tuesday. I have handled the snake just about every day except the day I got it and the day after feeding it. It seems to like curling up in my lap to sleep and stretching out, off of my hand, to...

    New to snakes

    I have always wanted a snake but have always lived with people who were afraid of snakes. I don't understand the fear, but then again I have also kept pet rats and people seem to be afraid of those, too. I finally got my hands on a beautiful three month old creamsicle corn snake and named it...
