This might be a silly question. But how do I tell when my females are ovulating? I assume they have some type of cycle like all animals do...

I noticed that the skin around my boy's bum is red. it isn't swollen but it definitely looks irritated. as far as I can tell he is pooping just fine. I'm worried that it might turn into an infection. what should I do? is it safe to use Vaseline?

This is my lav bloodred baby. Quite recently, he became very active! So now I can get some nicer pics of him. I'm not sure what caused his sudden burst of energy, though. Any ideas?

My little Jasper did something weird. I recently moved across the state. When I got to my new place, I took Jasper from his carrier to his big tank, well I tried... When I reached in to pick him up, he jumped out! He seemed very frightened. This was about a week ago. He was fine after that...

So today I was watching my new snake drink and when he was done he made a little shudder and then what sounded like a sneeze... he made the noise several more times after that too. Is this just how a snake sneezes?

This is Rose. We just brought her home last night so she is still a bit timid and getting used to her new surroundings. She is so bright and beautiful, a huge thank you to Brent!

So I decided that Jasper is my pretend dragon. I had been looking for an aquarium castle. When I found the perfect one, I made a hill and moat for it. Then I painted the castle. All I need to is find a tiny princess to put on the top-most tower. And a hoard. I am working on a hoard of treasure...

So my snake has been growing really fast. He is only 9 months old and is already over 2 feet. I don't have a scale to weigh him though. Does he look overweight to anyone? I feed him every 7-10 days but if I don't give him 3 pinkies he gets pissed. Should I just feed him less often? This is the...

So I am in college for marketing and I have to create a hypothetical business plan. I figured for fun I would write one on breeding but I don't know much about the industry since I am still new in just owning a corn. From what I have learned so far is that it must be a hobby more than a business...

This is Jasper. He is my little lavender gem. I think he hatched in July. I got him from Dakota Corns in 2010(thanks Brent!). He just shed a few days ago and I finally got around to uploading his pictures. He was very fascinated by my camera. Most of his pattern is fading except near his head...

I'm pretty sure my snake is getting fat. I only feed him once a week; he eats fuzzies. He is pretty round. It kind of looks like he has hips but then again, he hasnt pooped yet since I fed him last thursday. should i be feed him less?

I would post a pic is he wold hold still enough for me to get one that isnt blurry. I will keep trying. I noticed that the scales around his bum are pinker than the rest of his ventral, which is white/iridescent. He is about to shed so I thought that the pinkness would go away when his eyes...

This is my baby, Jasper. Unfortunately they aren't the most recent pics cuz I have yet to upload the newest ones I took. He is a Lavender and he is about 2 months old.

So my lavender, Jasper, is starting to change colors from his tail up... about mid-body he goes from pink to purple-ish. Is this just how corns change? I haven't been able to figure out how to add a picture on here or I would post one.

Most often when I am handling Jasper, he will raise his head to my eye level or as high as he can reach and then he will move his head side to side. It makes me think of the whole "walk like an Egyptian" thing. I find it amusing to mirror his movements haha anyway, is this normal?

I have been trying to get an patch of skin of my snake that was left over from his last shed and I can seem to work it off. I've tried humidity to moisten the patch but it still wont come off. Any suggestion?

I have a male corn who is only a few months old. My fiance wants to get another corn but we don't have a separate tank. would it be safe to have them in the same tank? I don't want them to start getting territorial and aggressive.

So one of my friends has a couple corn snakes and she bathes them... is that something that I should be doing? I have had my little Jasper for about a month and haven't felt like it was needed. But today I noticed that the skin around his face is starting to look really dry. Does that mean he is...

so my snake keeps itching his face and his nostrils are a little pinker than normal. should I be concerned?

My name is Ruth. I got my very first snake just a couple weeks ago and I already want more! Her name is Lily and she is a lavender corn snake. She is still pretty little, about 15 inches and she is getting more and more active every day. Since she is my first snake, I am a little nervous about...
