Thinking of getting a corn snake :)

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
In my experience corns have much more personality than milks. I also have a Pueblan Milk snake too. He doesn't like being handled and will musk and poo if you aren't careful. My corns don't mind one bit and actually welcome the touching.

I wouldn't risk it. They may stress eachother out in competition for hides or basking spots as well. Ivan, they are not normally, but they can eat other snakes. I've seen feeders eat cobras... Also, not many people thought ball pythons were not going so show cannibalistic behavior, but... BP.jpg Snakes are oppurtunistic feeders. They will eat what they can get.

My two corns are together. No problems. All eat at the same time on the same day. Mine are well fed and only one time did I notice anything that might have been slight aggression. It was only when i saw one of my snakes smelling the other for too long right after a feeding. Nothing happened and everything was fine.

Some are that way but trust me not all. My current milk shows the least aggression iv ever seen. I cant even annoy her to strike.

I did think about getting a milk snake but personally like the look of the corns more.

Good luck with your breeding project, I have heard it's fairly easy? You trying to breed a colour strand or just generally breeding them?

Not easy what im working on. King/milk hybrids. Kings are snake eatters so its risky, but as long as Im careful (and use a female milk) it should be ok. The albino speckled king (bdlieved to be a cali x speck) is a giant butt hole and it will need watched closely. As both my main breeders (my other cali is more pet but she will be bred) are albino, I should get some killer offspring.
 
There are some good frozen feeder vendors online. We use micedirect.com. they have good sales often. If at all possible stay away from live feeders. Your corns will likely do fine with frozen right off the bat considering their age.
