I love corns I just ordered a baby I'm naming her Strawberry, she is albino. I'm so excited and scared for her safe arrival 😭 my bf helped me to get used to snakes and now I love them
where did you get her i dont know if I should get the baby at petco or petsmart
@@jenasiscastaneda4293 I got her from snakesatsunset and she actually passed away from being extremely Mal nourished. I would use morphmarket honestly. A bit tricky to figure out but someone could probably help you. There you can search through many options. Petstore I'm not sure. I've heard mixed things. If they are eating and mite free then I say go ahead and try if you like
@@DeciSpades oh gosh I'm so sorry.
I got a normal at petsmart it was just a hatchling … for 99 dlrs, quite a rip off. But it’s been over a year now and it’s super flighty 🥴
please please please dont gett from either@@jenasiscastaneda4293
You’re the only person who has mentioned not thawing the mice in a microwave! Thanks so much because I’m getting a snake soon and was thinking of doing that! This video was hella informative and well done. My favourite one I’ve watched on corn snakes :)
Thank you so much!
Yeah. You def should thaw out with hot water
As it’s been 2yrs I doubt you’ll see this but microwaving then is known to make them explode
@@Ccb1_2😂 thanks I need that information as getting a corn snake 😊
Just bought my baby yesterday. Shes albino. She’s so bright orange and white and she’s so sweet. I named her aurora. Whoever is debating weather they should get one or not... do it!
I just adopted a 5yo albino corn snake, she’s a beautiful light peach colour and almost looks iridescent purple in some lights. I named her Momo which means Peach in Japanese 🥰
Love the helpful time stamps for care subjects! And such beautiful snakes!
I just bought an 8-9 year old corn snake and she is just the most calm snake ever
This guy knows his stuff. Great tutorial.
Just purchased an Albino Corn Snake three days ago. I like your content and I subbed you. Thank you for your time.
Finally a Simply lovely and clear video about corn snakes ! Thank you
Thanks for this info I have just bought a yellow corn snake, this info is great. I did a lot of research before like you said.
my corn snake is so cute she’s a hypo baby so she is rlly only pink red black and a little bit of orange and she’s so sweet! i took her home on friday and it’s been 5 days with her now and we hang out everyday. she’s my bff she’s already started to come out onto my hands when i open her cage and she loves to explore so much! i do feel like she needs more than a 10 gallon because she loves to move. i enjoy learning more about corn snakes so thank you for this video even though it’s a few years later lol
Ty for this! I just got a corn snake few days ago and clueless when it comes to snakes. I’ve always have a breaded dragon and just recently got a Leopard Gecko but they do have similar care guides, I’d rather be safe than sorry so I watch UA-cam videos like this 👍🏼
Very good video. I’m getting my first snake this weekend and one of the first comments I see is someone in the same boat who had the same idea as me… thaw mice in the microwave. I’m so glad I watched this video because that’s what I thought you’re supposed to do!
Just here to get information on corn snakes before I purchase one. I have 4 bearded dragon's and looking to do something different in my Reptile world.. love the video
I’m so excited I just ordered a corn snake and I’m naming him rumplesnakeskin, very informative video thanks😁
No problem!
That is an amazing name, how is he doing?
@@Mogers95 he’s great really nice to me at least he doesn’t love other people but once he’s around a new person for a few minutes he’s really comfortable
Where did you order from? i'm looking into getting one
@@bethgeekprincess7648 so I placed an order at twin city reptiles in Minnesota and then drove to pick him up
I found a tiny one in my garage and made him a home using the tips in this video hes thriving now thank you so much for the tips amazing video🙏
No problem!
When I heard Zelda music, I was like; "Okay I'm subscribing". 💚☺️🐍 I became interested in corn snakes after I handled them at a library presentation years ago, the education really helped turn my childhood fear into curiosity. 😍 Hopefully I will get one once my setup is complete.
We have 2 corns, both babies one is a Caramel Tessera Het Amel named Maizee and the other is a Ultramel Tessera Blood red Het Peach Line named Shadow. My husband prefers the corns, where as I prefer the ball python. Both the corns have awesome head stamps. Look like skulls with a candle coming out.
Super helpful!! Thank you
Thank you!
i’m so excited, i am gonna be purchasing an albino corn snake soon and i’m naming him pickles!!! he will be going in a 40 gallon tank! thank you for this video, it was really helpful!!
No problem! Enjoy!
I got one like a week ago and gave her a 40 gallon tank also. (I named her Kayda.) She seems be enjoying the extra space. 😄
Just a mom here..that got talked into taking care of a corn snake until my own kid can on his own! I love the little corn noodle. We named him papi. I fed him and I can’t wait to hold him when he gets bigger.
9:24 «unless your house gets really cold at night like under 65» bOI that had me chuckling 😂 I live in norway, when it finally hit 65 degrees outside I considered going for my first swim in the lake to cool down
So yeah I should probably manage the temperature at night too
Tha's fair haha
we are getting a corn snake this weekend. His name is Fettuccini. thank you for making this video. its put a lot of my worries to rest.
Lmfao Fettuccini
Fluker's Reptile cleanser is awesome... Comes with an attached scrubby bristle and is 100% safe for your pet. Just scrub and rinse thoroughly, dry and air out, good to go! Fluker's FTW 🤘☺️
I have 2 corn snakes that when I got them they were pencil sized, They are 5 feet long and I have had them for 18 years. I just hold a thoroughly thawed mouse by the tail and they take it right away. I built a 3' by 4' by 3' wood and plexiglass cage and they have done quite well.
I have 2 corn snakes. They are adorable juveniles.
Corns are my favorite
All the corn snake morphs are pretty
Just ordered a corn snake yesterday (Amel Hypo/strawberry) naming him Zombie. I already have 2 ball pythons and 1 western hog nose snake .
you can tell it's Aspen bedding because of the way it is. Thanks for the info!
Isn't it NEAT?
hi i love your videos, i just subscribed 😃
I caught a baby corn snake yesterday! It's why I'm here ;-)
Please release them and get a captive bred one from a reputable source. It’s not fair to the snake to keep them.
I’m getting a corn snake within the next week or so right now I’m in the process of getting everything I need and prepared for it before I get one
My first snake was a cape house snake, following him I bought a milksnake then a Kenyan sand boa then yesterday I got a Miami corn snake all four of my snakes are boys
I’m getting my baby corn snake in 2 days and I’m so excited! It’ll be named Candy Corn, my gf came up with the name and i love it! Just realized the tank isn’t where the baby needs to start (20 Gal) so I’m thinking of putting some type of thing in the tank to shrink the inside maybe in the center, divide it in half so the area isn’t too large for the baby snake and it’ll still have a warm and cool side.
a 20 gal will be fine as long as you give them plenty of hiding spaces
Great video, and yes you dont want to nuke the frozen mouse. Its the snakes meal not your tv dinner. I didnt buy my corn from a pet store. I ordered her from a breeder. 2 month old female Buckskin Okeetee $60. Very pretty girl. Thank you for the informative videos. Keep them comming. 😊
Just picked up an albino baby, happy to say everything was set up right 😅
I have two corn snakes. Both were rescues. My first one is a 5 year old female Named Voodoo, she is a regular amel. She wasn't fed nearly enough while she was growing, and she ended up very stunted because of it. She is only a little over 2 feet long, and a skinny little thing. She is the tiniest adult corn snake I have ever seen, but she has so much personality! She is super active and gets excited when I come into the pet room and comes right out of her hide to watch what I'm doing in hopes that.
My other corn snake is a MASSIVE male butter morph that I named PoppaCorn. His age is unknown but I am apparently his 4th or possibly 5th owner so I assume he has to be an older fella. He is by far the biggest corn snake I have ever seen at just over 6 feet long, and he is thick too. When I rescued him from a friend's brother, he was extremely obese (almost like a ball python!), covered with layers of stuck shed, had a bad respiratory infection, and his barren, empty enclosure hadn't been cleaned in what looked like a year or more. It was covered in poop and mold, it smelled sooooo bad. They would just pile on more wood shavings over the poop instead of cleaning it up. It also stunk of cigarette smoke. I couldn't believe it. Just disgusting. The poor guys heat lamp was way too hot for him too and there was nowhere in the enclosure he could go to escape the heat. It was 108 degrees in the intended basking spot. I was so grateful to be able to get him out of that situation.
I have had him for about 2 years now and he is doing fantastic and loved very much. I have gotten his weight to a much healthier place, and he always has perfect sheds now and no more RI. He is a big sweetheart and really loves being with people. He would just hang out around my shoulders and in my hair all the time if I would let him.
Corn snakes are such good-natured creatures. Even after poor treatment from humans they are very accepting and trusting of humans. They are such awesome and beautiful snakes.
Sorry for the super long comment. I wanted to tell my snakes' stories. :)
nice channel
This is by far the best corn snake info video ive seen hands down!
Any chance you have any tips for putting two corn snakes in one encloser?
Two corn snake's together is no problem. Just make sure you feed them separately.
Thanks that was informative an interesting to learn more about corn snakes. I was asked to locate a corn snake as a gift for a friend but once I located the corn snake they had changed their mind and wanted a different type of reptile now I'm stuck with a corn snake. I have a few questions that I was hoping you'd be able to answer how can I tell the age of my corn snake. Also how can I tell the gender of my corn snake. Last and most important of all how long will they live?
i have a normal corn snake named Asmodeus and its impossible to resist the thought of getting another one soon, theyre so amazing and cuteee
Yes they are!
anyone have any advise on something that is a thermostat and when it gets to a certain temp it turns the power of visa versa
Was looking on Morphmarket the other day and was surprised to see several people selling wild caught ("field collected") corn snakes, with no listing of age or sex, for $60-80 plus shipping! The cheapest captive bred corns were $100. I guess prices went up since there were fewer expos in the last year.
Yeah that sounds sketchy!
I breed hognose and started by breeding corn snakes or red rat snakes and def easy to have my biggest got almost 8 ft long he was awsome
The first Reptile I ever ordered online was for my birthday last year. I had to wait a few weeks for her to ship since my birthday was in December and was so excited when I was able to pick her up and unbox her. She was an albino stripe het anery that I got from morph market. She was so tiny but surprisingly long. She was so beautiful with sherbet and bright orange and yellows. I had her in a critter keeper to start but that was a big mistake as she escaped after only having her for a little over a month 😢 I cried so much when I realized she was gone I tore apart my apartment and tried all the ways online for finding your lost snake and I never did find her again. I was so upset for a very long time. It's now been just over a year since she disappeared and I still want a new animal. I can only have one that can live in a 40 gallon enclosure though so that limits me on the kind of animal I can get. I'm thinking about an albino African house snake or rosy boa.
Any recommendations to purchase a corn snake
Where would you recommend to buy from
I’m just getting back to the snake hobby. Been overseas for a while and snakes are not as appreciated there. Can you do video on Indian Sand Boas. I’ve had a corn snake and Kenyan sand boa. Both were great.
is a 40 gallon tank really enough?? I get told to get as big as I can, such as a 120 gal. I know some corn snakes that almost 6 feet long, but 40 does not seem like enough
how do you pick it up safely
I have a wild caught cornsnake. Found it in some wood pile at work as a 8 inch baby. Now 40 inches 2 yrs later.
big one i just found baby albino aleady foot long
I've been taking my snakes out and feeding them in a difference enclosure for over 9 years now, That's Boas and ball pythons. Never had any issues with them regurgitating or being too stressed out. But the difference could be I did start them from babies when I first got them. From other snakes I've seen and people I've talked to I would say feeding in a different enclosure does help stop the feeding response cage regression with the boas, where as ball pythons are pretty chill anyway.
Feeding in a separate container is completely unnecessary, there’s honestly no good reason to do it. Typically consistent handling is enough to prevent “cage aggression”. If not, tap training and target training are very effective and a better alternative to moving to feed.
I have a corn snake and a ball python
My situation is a bit different than most when they get their first snake. I literally saved mine from the parking lot of my apartment complex. I live in Washington where corns aren't a native species. I know she is a female, reverse okeetee, about three years old, that's just from research I've done. I've had her for a week and she just shed a few days ago.
What part of Washington, and how is the snake doing? I live on the Olympic Peninsula and I’m driving to Portland to get my first snake tomorrow
@A K she is a corn snake, she is doing amazing. What kind of snake are you getting?
@@Kanaya8169 corn as well 😊 that’s so wonderful you rescued her and she’s thriving
@A K thank you, she's my baby
I just got a corn snake td from work
I have a snow corn that is 19 years old . 5 1/2 feet long . Some times quite docil , some times not , He will bite when hungry , which is most of the time .
Thanks for the tips!! I just got one less than a week ago and I named her Kayda! I had done a lot of research before getting her but decided to do a little more just to be safe.
No problem!
Never stop learning. I've had ball pythons for 6 years and keep researching
Is creamsicle full grown?
I have a wild caught corn snake and it's cool. After the sun goes down it tends to start climbing and romaing. Then it will let me hold it and bond. It's probably only a couple to a few weeks old.
What's crazy to me is how different each species care is. I have a Rosy Boa, a NA native snake from desert regions. If the humidity is above 50% a respiratory infection is highly possible, and also a UV light is not required since they're nocturnal (I do provide UV though just because it's available in nature). Some owner have no light and just keep their tank dry and that's fine for a Rosy, but if you try that with a ball python or corn snake you'll end up with health issues. Research is key to a healthy snake!
I spent a good amount of money to get everything I need for my Corn Snake Mango. I get Mango this Saturday.
Nice! Where are you getting mango from?
Is a 30 gallon tank reasonable
Thank you for a great video! I just have one question. I already have a 10 gallon and 5 gallon tank. Im going to be getting a much bigger tank for my Corn Snake, but since i already have the smaller tanks i was thinking of connecting the tanks with pipe that my snake could go through to freely move between tanks. So im wondering if this is okay for my cornsnake or if the tanks are too small or something else? And the bigger tank will be his main tank.
Thank you! With that my main concern would actually be the snake's containment. Small colubrids are EXPERT escape artists and introducing a tunnel between two tanks would make the chance of it getting out much higher. For a younger cornsnake a 10 gallon is perfectly fine no need to connect the two!
Thank you, ill just have him in a 10 gallon and then switch to a bigger tank.👌
Hi Im looking for some helpful insight. I now care for a lovely corn which is easily 13 years old and it's last shed was 65 inches and has a good set up in its vivarium but I'm interested in changing to a ceramic no light heat emitting bulb and want to know if it's a good idea and what sort of watt bulb like would 60w be enough and do I need a pulse thermo instead of a on off like used with a heat mat and if a bulb is used can the mat be taken out so it only gets heat from above. The corn always seems really happy, feeds regularly without fail and always sheds on one piece so imm just after some advice.
Ceramic heat emitters aren’t a good primary heat source. A halogen flood bulb connected to a dimmer/dimming thermostat is the most natural and beneficial option. They produce infrared A and B like the sun, heat that penetrates deep into the skin tissue and heats them far more effectively than heat mats and CHEs. Whereas heat mats and CHEs only produce IRC, which only heats the surface of their skin.
One of my dad's concerns about me getting a snake was that they smell. I've done some research on that, and from what I found, some say if you keep the cage clean, and avoid them musking on you, they don't, but others say that they do smell, even if you take care of them properly.
In your opinion, how true is that?
If you stay on top of the spot cleaning and change out the bedding (I'd say every few months with aspen, more regularly with paper towel or newspaper) the smell is basically nonexistent. Lizards are far more of pain with smell generally. If you're feeding a snake every other week generally there's only one poop on that interval too
@@unchartedwild2166 Thank you, This was really helpful!
Right.
Great video thank you so much for the information!! I just got a baby albino corn snake and I'm so paranoid that I'm going to do something wrong!! 🥺 But he's the cutest! I was told to put the UVB bulb and the basking bulb on next to each other on the same side of the tank, and turning both off at night does that sound correct??
Thank you! If it's one of the little coil UV bulbs that gives off next to no UV anyways so you might as well just stick with the heat lamp but yes you want lighting on the one side
@@unchartedwild2166 thanks so much!
Thank you so much that video was so very helpful 💯I have a orange corn snake he’s not an albino he or she I don’t know what to tell if it’s a he or she I would love if you could do a video on that because I really wanna know but I also want to know how to measure the corn snakes if I could get any information on there that would be very helpful thank you🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you! Red eyes are albinos
🙌🙌🙌🙌
Got a new albino cornsake. I was really worried about the humidity because it stays at 59 and 60 but I'm jappy to hear that it won't harm him. I have a very small waterball to make sure the humidity doesn't spike. And have 1 branch, in the middle and about 2 hides on both sides and 1 small hide in the middle and decor in the other side
if my cat looks into my setup also he would be really close would that cause regurgitation?
Just ensure there are ample hides for the snake to escape to and you'll be fine. If the snake feels exposed constantly than you may have issues like that. I also recommend removing the cat from the room while you feel, just to avoid any issues of the snake choosing to not eat.
What do you do if your corn snakes rubbing their face against the tank like what does it mean exactly ??
Just exploring their surroundings probably or maybe starting to shed
If I have a under the tank heat pad, do I need an overhead heat source also?
Yes. Heat mats are unnecessary and not a good primary heat source, overhead heating is much better for them. A halogen or incandescent bulb is the most natural and beneficial primary heat source. They produce infrared A and B like the sun, heat that penetrates deep into the skin tissue and heats them far more effectively. Whereas heat mats only produce IRC, which only heats the surface of their skin.
My snakes tank has a different humidity on the different sides of the tank the warm side hovers around 60 and the cool side between 45 and 55 is this bad that the warm side is a bit high
That’s completely fine! Corn snakes are native to the southeast US, where it’s typically quite humid. They benefit from higher humidity.
My dad said that the heatlamp needs to be on 24/7, But recently my heatlamp went out again recently after getting a new bulb. The only thing I have now is a heating pad- I'm worried that the tank is too warm or too cold sometimes but I dont want to have to ask my dad for ANOTHER bulb
Do you have a way of checking temperatures like a temp gun or a thermometer? Is the heating pad on a thermostat?
So I have both heat lamp and mat the mat is in the side of the enclosure. Is that ok?
The mat is completely unnecessary.
How old is Creamsicle in this video?
Around 5 foot max my just over 6 foot snow corn 😮
I named my corn sake, corndog and I live in the uk where we don’t really have corn dogs haha
I'm in the UK too, mine is called Coco
Just bought one. I get it Wednesday
Me too, get mine Tuesday. I can’t wait to get Charlie.
Where did y’all buy them from?
They're a good choice!
💚🐍💚
The temp in my house is 67 at night will that be ok for my corn snake?
Yep!
I have a corn snake, she’s a little over a year. For the last 4-5 sheds her tail has a bit that won’t shed and now there’s several layers and I’m concerned. I put extra water in her tank and have soaked her a few times despite her pure hate for water. Not sure what to do
So what type of bedding are you using? If there's five levels of sheds on her tail at this point I'd be worried about constriction and possible blood flow. Maybe take her to a vet? You could try for the future a humid hide, a plastic container with a hole cut in the side that you can fill with moss to mist and retain humidity just to use when she's shedding.
@@unchartedwild2166 I use aspen bedding. It’s the last maybe half inch of her tail, I’ll take her to the vet. There is a little indentation where the shed begins, so I’m concerned for restriction too. I live in Las Vegas, very dry here. Would you suggest that a humid hide is sufficient to maintain enough humidity in such a dry climate? Is there anything else I should do?Thank you!
Provide a moist hide and mist daily once the snake is in shed. Aspen is incredibly dry. Switching to bioactive will probably help, too.
For now, only a vet can help. My garter snake loss the tip of its tail due to a bad shed. It had to be amputated.
Good luck.
@@guy8646 bioactive is for experience owners I wouldn't recommend to beginners until they done alot research
@@djayscruggs8786 with my first snake I put in a Bioactive substrate. It’s easy, less upkeep and provides a very natural environment for the snake.
I’m having such a hard time maintaining temps. I live in Scotland, my lil girl is just a baby corn and her Viv sits around 21-22”c and the hot side is only 25-27 max. I’m scared she will be too cold :(. Please someone any suggestions? I care for her so much.
I would recommend the pad heaters that stick to the bottom of the tank they work very well l, but like he said you should probably use a thermostat so it doesn't get too hot.
My cornsnakes are very agressive so i don't really hold them anymore, what can i do to help them calm down?
Make sure it’s clear for them when they’re eating and when you’re picking them up. Also don’t pick them up close to after they’ve eaten
@@Aardydarling Thank you
Does anyone else have problems finding cheaper corn snakes, they are all 100$ and they don’t even have any morphs
Corn snakes and Ball Pythons are all I care to have, really. You don't need anything else once you know you love these kinds of snakes. You can be an expert here and that's it.
I wanna get a corn snake, me and my bff fell in love with one and we're gonna name him Cheeto XD
Fitting name!
@@unchartedwild2166 I know right?
I have ball python corn snake king snake sidewinder rattle snake and a coral snake
Our Bubblegum Corn Snake is 5ft 6 and she doesn't seem to be slowing down.
Wow that is a very big one!
I’m 5,2, your snake is 4 inches longer then me.
What way do u get humidity cos I hear a lot of this and I'm not sure what is required for this
You can provide a humid hide. An enclosure humidity of 60-70% is ideal but corns tolerate a wide range of humidity, so a bit lower than this is fine.
@@nightinggale6470
So would you provide a humid hide 24/7 like a Ball python? Or just when In shed.
If not how can I maintain the perfect humidity levels
@@theredalpha7290 just to clarify, a humid hide alone is insufficient for ball pythons, they need high humidity throughout the enclosure at all times. When it comes to corn snakes, they can handle a wide range of humidity, to be honest I’ve been pretty lazy with maintaining my girl’s humidity and she does fine, with good sheds. However, they are native to humid regions and do best with moderate to high humidity (roughly 50-70%). They benefit from having access to a humid hide as well. You can maintain humidity by using a deep layer of a humidity retaining substrate. I personally use a mix of forest floor (cypress mulch) and Reptisoil with leaf litter on top for my corn. Pour water into the substrate and mix it in, just make sure the surface stays relatively dry. Having a PVC enclosure also helps with humidity. If you’re struggling to maintain humidity with an enclosure with a mesh lid, cover most of the mesh with foil tape.
@@nightinggale6470
looking at Dubia roaches pvc enclosures. I’ll get the 120 gallon for the adult corn. I’m still mapping shit out haha. First time owning snakes.
Would I be able to maintain humidity in anyway with Aspen? If I have to use cypress I will.
And about the humid hide, could I just keep it in the enclosure 24/7? Or should I only pop it in when snake is in shed?
@@nightinggale6470
Could I mix Aspen and Cypress?
You think that would keep humidity well?
Whatsup Austin Powers LOL
I had a corn that was about 6 feet. She was a looong girl.
My female albino corn snake got to 6ft 6in she was a proper chunky monkey and very social and very easy to handle
@@michellejones5541 Wow, now that's unusual (the length), and very cool. My girl wasn't as socialized, I got her as a rehome and she was a bit skittish, but still sweet.
@@mickeymayhem4733 I had her from a baby and she always ate well and was happy to be handled I also took her out into my garden when it was sunny so she could soak up the sunshine and I think all those things combined let her grow to such a long lady
@@michellejones5541 Definitely sounds like it would help. 😊
The zelda noises sell this for me
Thank you!
bonjour mon nouvel ami :-) :-)
I just had to share with you you had mentioned in your video that you had never heard of a person that had a baby corn snake from outside well now you do hello it's me :-) :-) my cat decided to bring me a present she did not harm the snake at all maybe she just chased them in sometimes I leave the front door open a little bit I do have a frog that lives inside the house yeah they just gravitate towards me anyhow I've been giving my baby corn snake rehydrated freeze dried crickets there is water dish I need to get the perfect enclosure I am also a tarantula person unfortunately my ecompass Stratus escaped it was very sad anyhow my question is do you have any advice on how to help my corn snake feel more comfortable I like to touch my animals they all have souls it doesn't matter if it's a reptile and Aunt a dog a giraffe they're all beautiful to me!! So my baby is about a foot and a half long and really scared right now so she bit me a couple times no big deal I'm fine, do you think she'll ever be friendly with me since she's from the outside and I did keep her because birds pick them off around here I'm from Florida I'm near Anna Maria Island Sarasota Bradenton Beach area what are your thoughts and I will not feed my snake live anything but she does seem to like the freeze dried cricket please let me know hope to hear back from you soon Chrissy :-) :-)
Please release the snake, native wildlife should not be kept as pets. It isn’t fair to the snake. Please also consider keeping your cat inside, they kill a lot of native wildlife. Corn snakes eat primarily rodents and should not be fed dead insects.
Looks like an Okeetee Amel Motley.
Thanks!
Im sorry to say but this video has a few flaws. Aspen bedding is good for most snakes but specefically the corn snake is irritated by it, get coco blocks instead.
Looks Hypo Motley
In my next life I will have a corn snake. My wife does not like snakes
I would say to viewers not to use cypress mulch I've seen a corn snake go into toxic shock and fit on that type of bedding so stick to aspen or better set up a eco system be as near to nature as you possible can, and I agree red bulbs not good, I never like heat mats in wood vivs
