Hi All, A couple of weeks ago I was pulling pinks and fuzzies to euthanize, and I noticed that one was super tiny and looked nearly hairless at 4 weeks. I decided that the breeder must not have been producing quality offspring and I went ahead and euthanized her, her sisters, the male (just to...

Hi All! I just wanted to put something out there that has been on my mind. About a year and a half (or so) ago, I came across a thread here by SnakeAround, who used to be quite active on this site.. In the thread she documents a spontaneous mutation (one assumes) in her collection, which she...

Hello All, I am sitting here in the dark of a hotel room (while my husband snores), absolutely ~wide~ awake, and have JUST now realized that I left home without even checking on my snakes. You see, we got a phone call at 4:31 am Tuesday morning informing us that our oldest child had been in an...

Hi All, Yesterday was Feeding Day for 3/4 of my snakes. I also did a bit of spot cleaning and changed out water bowls, but I didn't really spend a lot of time in the snake room. So, I had a little trouble falling asleep last night and I finally gave in and took a Valium. I finally drifted to...

Hi All, I recently had a deal go south on an Amel Aberrant Pattern Female Corn Snake, and now find myself short a snake. If anyone has something like this (or close to it) available, please PM me. Thanks in Advance! ~Beau

Hi All! Please forgive me if this seems a stupid question, but I have a male (scaleless) that I want to breed next year. The female I want to breed him to is a little aggressive and I am afraid that, without scales to protect him, she could kill him before I could stop her. Does anyone have any...

I am considering the purchase of this snake, as I love the look of the pattern. I haven't made up my mind, though, and haven't contacted the owner yet. It is advertised just as a "corn snake", but I can't help but wonder.... Thoughts? ~Beau

Hi All! I have started several threads here, when I first started projects, which sadly remain un-updated and unfinished. An old saying, that I often heard growing up, "Men make plans, God laughs." pretty well sums up the circumstances relating to my unfinished projects. My reptile room...

I absolutely CANNOT believe my stupidity! We had to stop working on our new snake room midway through due to an unexpected business assignment out of town. As a result, our snake racks are in the dinning room, and we had to go out of town for 10 days. We returned home yesterday, and this...

Hi All! I have a serious question. I am having trouble deciding wether or not to euthanize a snake. Not to go into too much detail, I recently received 2 newly hatched snakes. I ordered the snakes with the knowledge that one was a difficult feeder. A couple of days before the breeder shipped...

Hi All! I have been setting up a new snake-room, and I thought I had found a perfect solution to create snake racks without using RUBs. My husband works for the DOD as an engineer, and the government is constantly getting rid of used office furniture. One such price of furniture was a lateral...

Hi All! I received a new snake today! She is an Albino Black Rat Snake (adult). This is the first Black Rat Snake I have owned, so I am not familiar with their ideosynchrocies. Due to her being shipped, I only briefly held her, but while I was holding her I couldn't help but notice that every 5...

I originally purchased my male Scaleless Everglades to go with my female of the same species and morph, unfortunately my female has been a bit of a problem feeder and will in no way be ready to breed next year as hoped. So...I am think I will cross him out with my recently acquired Albino Black...

I just ordered some ASF Rats! I am getting two groups of 1.3 from 2 different breeders! I will be getting them on Friday, so now I have to build my mini-racks! Since males and females need not be separated (except for growing them out past weaning stage), I will only be using 4 tubs. One tub...

Hi All! I am expanding my snake collection, and (obviously) my number of vivs. Since I have been planning this for a while, I ordered a number of large under tank heaters from an over-seas supplier to save money, but hen the UTHs arrived they didn't come with any kind of adhesive to attach them...

I don't know how helpful this will be, especially since I had to resize it... ~Beau

My first corn snake was a birthday present from my spouse. A VERY unexpected present, considering my spouse is terrified of snakes. After 19 years together, I had lost hope that he would ever "give in" and let me get a snake, so you can imagine my happy surprise when he presented me with a snow...

Hi All! Has anyone else experienced anything like this: On my last purchase from a very well known rodent dealer (I won't say who, let's just say that they are real Rodent Professionals...), I noticed that the dealer has some hoppers marked down to a really low price, .19 (cents) each and I...

Scaleless Everglades Rat Snakes Hi Al! Though, in my case, I am asking in relation to Everglades Rat Snakes, this would also apply to corn snakes carrying these genetics. I recently stumbled across a happy find-- a baby scaleless Everglades rat snake at PetCo! I was visiting a friend who...
