    Snake jerks violently away from thawed mouse, what the heck?!

    My four year old ( female?) corn acted really weird last time we fed her. Have only had her since late Feb, and she's been through two sheds and some mating behavior, so I feel like we don't really know what's normal for her yet. But last time I fed her I thawed the mouse and held it by her hide...

    Anyone fed their snake a pinkie rabbit?

    Just curious if anyone else has experienced this. My meat rabbit rejected her last litter and I thought "Oh, well, at least I'll have plenty of food for the snake." But the snake refused to eat the pinkie rabbits. Any ideas why not? This coincided with springtime and the snake getting very...

    First successful shed and feeding, first-time snake people!

    Hi everyone, Thanks for the help and tips I've already gotten, both directly and through reading posts. We got our 4-year-old girl, Ember, a few weeks ago and are very happy with her and with everything she is bringing to our lives. Technically she is my 8-year-old daughter's, per her...

    Newbie- how did our first handling go?

    Hi everyone. Just wondering how you think this went/ how we did: We (8 year old daughter and I) got our girl 5 days ago, she's 2 years old, pretty good sized, and used to a lot of handling, including by kids. I know we're a bit shy of the 7 days mark, but figure we could try it as she's been...

    recommendations for 12v DC, or USB powered heat mats?

    I'm trying to figure out the least electricity-intensive way to keep our prospective/hypothetical corn warm. We have a fairly small solar power setup, so amounts of power matter to us! Also, live in a wood-heated house in Maine and don't stoke the stove at night, so we do need to provide warmth...

    Ideas for heating without electricity?

    Hi everyone, New member and prospective first-time snake owner here. My 8 year old daughter is very interested and so I've been reading up but am stuck pretty hard on the heat issue. We're in western Maine in a cabin with only wood heat. Probably gets down to 50F in the winter at night. We're on...
