hey all

Hey I'm not new to corn snakes by any means just haven't had one in a long time. Recently I rescued a corn that was cover head to tail in liquid nails... It is a wild corn but not looking to release back and I also recently picked up from a friend who has since passed away a gulf hammock rat snake and was mainly wondering what is the best cage size to get each of them mainly thanks

I can't say for sure on the rat snake, but the minimum size for an adult corn would be a 20 gallon long. Have you been able to get the liquid nails off the snake? Poor guy.

Welcome to the forum!

Hello and welcome! Poor snake ...

Yeah that was about a good while ago he was just a tiny baby when that happened he's now close to 2 1/2-3 foot long

Before and after pix of the gulf hammock rat... I don't currently have a good pic of my corn but should have one when I clean cages this weekend

Wow, he was extremely skinny. Looks like he's getting better though.

Yeah he could barely even move and it took me a lot to get him to where he is now because the previous own (accidental captive bred) had 11 of them and forgot about this one and the night before he took his own life he asked me if I'd take care of this one because he said he was getting out of snakes for a while.... Granted Morgan the gulf hammock is a tride and true jerk I still love him none the less

Just taken for Dexter he wouldn't really sit still long enough to take a good pic of him but still a well tempered snake

Of not for sorry
