A question about what's a pure bred corn, with no other breeds of snakes bred into the line. It was suggested to me a strawberry corn is a cross. He mentioned the latin name of the snake but i can't quite remember it. He also said striped snakes are a result from crossbreading. One way to know...

Remind me never to miss a feeding again... I was just bringing Kira (red stripe) a mouse. Before i had a change to put it in the feeding bin, she *leaped* out, grabbed the mouse, and i felt a fang on my finger. Now i'm quite prepared for agressiveness when i put my hand in the bin. Now however...

Hi, I was just taking some photo's of my freshly shed bloodred. It didn't go perfectly but that was more because i accidently startled him with taking photo's and he ripped the shed. A tiny little piece remained but i got it off. Anyway i was taking some more photo's. Really cute He didn't...

For the last few days my snow and charcoal haven't been active at all. Normally, the snow would even be active in daytime and most of the time he didn't bother to hide. And it the evening the charcoal would come out. However, since a few days there not doing anything *at all*. Today i thought...

Hi, I'm starting to get really worried about my new bloodred (13 months). He *still* hasn't pooped. Except on the first day i had him. I will bathe him to see if i can losen up things. May even visit the vet again. Question, when i lifted his tail to take a peek i saw a tiny drop of liquid...

I got a bunch of wuzzies for snakes. My stripe won't constrict. She prefers to just grab on and wait till the peach fuzzy expieres. So i usually give her the ones the move the least. I do try to make the fuzzy act big and feriousios by moving it and pretending to attack the snake. She doesn't...

Yup. I bought a beautifull 13 month old corn at the fair yesterday. Quite a simpel bloodred but with amazing eyes. I've never really handled an adult. Besides this one time when i was still looking for what snake to purchase. He thought me a mice and bit me. And a bit later in a pet store. He...

How long should a snake generally be going in quarantine? I bought a snow and a charcoal the 28 of august. There not going to physically touching my other snakes. But right now i won't handle my 'proven clean' snakes untill i've disinfected my hands. And not all al when they've run over my...

Oke. I pretty much had it. I simply can't get some decent pinkies here in Holland. The smallest one are so big my snake simply won't have them. Only rarely i'm able to get a decent size pinkie without bites from his nestmates. I got 4 snakes now. Including 2 1 month old snakes wich i simply...

Copy/pasted from: http://coloherp.org/cb-news/archive/humor/SalesPitch.php I found this funny :)

In danger of my own life ;) Though she's more mellow about it now. I handfeed her because she *always* manages to start at the mouse belly and, expecially when still alive, has a really hard time with it. I just make her take the head. But with the next mice she apperantly got the message. I...

Found this on a dutch version of Ebay. Just known for bad sellers/buyers due to no signup nessasary. A discard from our own serpenco. I hope he finds a good owner. http://www.marktplaats.nl/markt/dieren/reptielen/57827.htm?fo=1&rv=100

She defecated again and it still doesn't look good. She pooped inside the carton so i could take a good look at it. Theres some slime around it to. Can i bring 24 hour old poop? Anything else i might need to know? Should i bring the snake? Also, my hamster has a big oddlooking bump near her...

Over here where i live food animals are really hard to get by. Last friday i went to the only suplierer remotely in my aera. Unfortunately except for 2 pinkies he was freshed out. Great. Since my snakes are up and about the day after feeding i decided 1 wasn't enough anymore. He had 3 other...

I was just wondering if i might get my new snake from an animal shelter. Sure it's much nicer to just pick out the most beautifull snake at the next reptile fair but you have to wonder what happens to abandoned/mistreated snakes. How would they recover from that. Would they always be 'weary' of...

Some people say it's not nessasary because they'll find all the calcium they need in their daily (weekly) food. Others say you definately need to give extra calcium. Breeding or not. It might even result in deformaties if you don't. Does anyone here have a definite awnser. I would just go...

Does anyone know a snake size sheet? Like how big they are at a certain age, and how heavy there supposed to be compared to their lenght? I know you can get the snake to grow faster with power feeding, and keep it small with maintainance feeding but i'm talking average. I just wanna have a bit...

My red corn has just gone into blue phase. She's ugly right now. I've seen butts more beautifull :D Anyway, so i won't feed her. But i would like to feed the other one. She's smaller and has fed less then my other so i want to beef her up as quickly as possible. But i'm afraid she's going to...

On of my snakes really has rough scales. There not 100% flat. I noticed it last week when she wasn't sliding through my fingers very smoothly. I let someone else look at it with more snake experience then me and he said she was probably going to shed. That was a week ago and last satuday she...

I'm not just cut our to murder them. I just had to put one out of his suffering. I held him for a long time, just wondering what to do with it. My snake each had one but non wanted the third. First i imagined to just keep him warm and alive to hope and try to offer it again at dusk. But it...
