Hello all. My name is Ashley and I am new to this forum. I have 2 corn snakes, a Florida brown (found swimming in my mom's pool), and a ball python. I have always been a snake lover, but not a snake owner until a couple years ago. I inherited my first 2 snakes (adult corn snakes) from a friend who was forced to down-size his collection. Pebble was supposed to be my roommate at the time's snake, but she couldn't feed her, so she stayed when my friend moved out. The other snake (named Chance because she was a rescue, almost dead when my friend's friend found her) died just over a year ago. I was so upset after Chance passed away, and about 6 months later I talked my husband into letting me get another corn snake. Striker is about 9 months old now and growing fast! I have pictures on my page ( http://www.cornsnakes.com/forums/member.php?u=22305 ) of all my snakes (except the ball python because I just got her).
