Molly, my snow corn, is, to the best of my knowledge, about 1.5 years old and just over 3 feet long. I don't know how much she weighs, but she doesn't appear to be underweight. She seems to be active enough and sheds about once a month, and with her milky red eyes should be doing it again this...

My female snow was born in early 2005. Let's call her Mrs. Robinson. I am planning to breed her in 2008. So, if I get a 2006 male (call him Dustin) would he be ready to breed even though he is a year younger than her? She'll be 3 and he'll be 2 when I plan to breed them. Pardon the...

I just measured Molly with Snake Measurer and she is 23.35 inches long. As far as I can tel she is about a year old. Her weight is hard to get since I don't have a digital scale yet, but my analog kitchen scale shows her to be about 50 grams. I feel this is too small for her. She doesn't...

I am wondering if it is ok to give Molly 2 fuzzies after shedding. "Cornsnakes: The Comprenensive Owner's Guide", by Kathy & Bill Love says that "Their appetites wanetoo, but reappear with a vengeance as soon as the old skins are discarded." Does that mean eating twice as much? More often...

The title pretty much says it all. I have a yearling (about 2') in a 20 Long aquarium now and am planning on getting a male in another pretty soon. I was just wondering how long they would last in a 20L (30x12x12).

I have gotten the bug. I have my first snake in a 20L aquarium pretty nicely set up to be the best vivarium I can give her. I want to get some more snakes, keep them as pets, and breed in the next year or so. I just can't keep them all in the plastic containers that so many seem to use. To...

Last night Molly shed, the first time since I have owned her. I tried to keep the humidity high, and do everything right. Her shed came off in what I believe to e 1 piece. Except now she has what appears to be a small piece of skin at the end of her tail. It looks like a piece of thread tied...

I got my thermostat yesterday and was wondering where to place the probe since no vivarium type instructions came with it. Right now I have it in her hot side hide. I have it set at 85 during the day dropping to 75 at night. That makes the rest of the hot side of the cage about 95 - 100 with...

I know the answer is probably in here somewhere but the search engine is no help here... What is the best age for mating? I have a female corn that will be 2 in next years (2007) breeding cycle. She's a pretty big girl, about 2 feet now and eating like a pig. Will she be too young to be...

Molly, my corn snake has been held almost every day since I got her, with the exception of feeding times. She has recently gotten to the point where I can open the cage and put my hand in it and have her crawl onto my hand. Is this just curiosity or something more on her part. It seems...

I have checked into Flexwatt and ordered some in hopes that it and a good thermostat will help with my heating problems. What I have read says to cut it in 1 foot lengths. I am just afraid that 1 foot won't be enough to heat one side of a 30" tank. Has anybody ever had any experience cutting...

I heard that snakes can' process red light. Does that make red lights a good idea for night spot heating where necessary and for viewing? Robert :shrugs:

My snake is about 2" long and I have no idea how old she is. She's a pretty snow corn and I read somewhere that her colors could change until she is grown. Is that right? If so how long is that until she is considered grown? Right now she's a pretty pink color and I hope she keeps it. I want...

I have an open sided hide on the warm side of my viv and my snaked seems to like going in there. I like it because I can see her most of the time. I try to keep that end of the cage covered with a black cloth, but I was wondering if the openness of that side could be causing her stress. She...

Hi, My name is Robert and I have owned my first corn snake for just under a week now. She is a sweet pink corn named Blondie. I have tried to set her up nicely and make her happy since she is going to be with me for quite some time. She is in a 20L aquarium with a sturdy top, a hiding spot...
