An Introduction to Corn Snakes |
Keeping snakes has been an interest of mine for some years now and these pages are just a few words about how I got started in snake keeping and what an easy to keep pet snakes are compared with many other pets. Hopefully some of this will be useful information for anyone thinking about buying their first snake - or, indeed, building a vivarium for a corn snake.
There are around 200 pictures of my two corn snakes, Shaggy and Alice, now arranged into fourteen separate galleries. Find an index to the galleries on the Snake Pictures page. The latest Gallery, number Fourteen, was uploaded on 6th June 2008, but there are also pages of pictures and words devoted to Alice shedding her skin and laying eggs. See the Corn Snake Shedding Skin and the Corn Snake Laying Eggs pages for a description and pictures of her shedding her skin and laying eggs.
Another page - started in December 2002 - is all about Rio, a young corn snake belonging to Jo. There is a Gallery of Pictures and a few words about Rio - see Rio's Gallery for pictures of a corn snake going from tiny hatchling through to full grown adulthood. There's also page devoted to a corn snake called Mombasa, from Canada. See Mombasa's Page for words and pictures.
As well as the many other pages on the site, there is a Links page to other herpetology sites. If you are a herpetologist with a website, then email me if you'd like a link. And of course, there are the usual Sitemap and Search pages, to help you find stuff on the site.
A recent addition to the site is about hatchling corn snakes that are reluctant to feed and ways of cajoling or persuading them to eat. See the Corn Snake Feeding Problems page. If you have a corn snake such as this, then please read this page before emailing me asking what to do.
One of the more recent additions to the site is The Corn Snakes Forum where you can post a question (or answer), opinions or comments. The success of this page depends entirely on you, the visitors to this site - but so far this has proved to be very popular and has now had more than 2000 questions posted...
