Should I go get a corn snake right now?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Wee beleive that my freinds iguana died from being in the waterpipe party room at his house.He was so upset when it died but what do you expect from constant contact smoke from the room.Snakes im sure are even more sensetive i would imagine due to one lung really doing all the work.So if any of you out their smoke as i do sometimes,keep your pets,including herps away from it.Most of them are from areas with the air quality we only wish we could have,especialy in my smogy town.
 
dude, relax with the handling. Hes hissing and biting becasue he has only been in his new home for a day and he keeps getting disturbed. I usually give snakes/herps 3-4 days before handling.

Nope, I got a corn. He's pretty vicious...I know his bite doesn't really hurt, but I get scared and almost jump each time he bites and hisses at me.

I let him settle in the first day...now I'm handling him twice a day. Today I will probably handle him once and then feed him. Then I guess I can't play with him until thursday or so...:(
personaly i think they digest food fairly quik and i dont think you have to wait that long but its good your thinking of the snake before your own pleasure.:)

some must be more sensetive than others because mine have always been fine with it.No matter where i move them.His defenetly is bothered by something but it may just be its temperment.Just my expereince.

I know, I know, I understand why he is aggressive and I'm okay with it.
