Posted - 17/04/2010 : 02:36:45 Welcome Craig, it is really good that you have joined us! This is a great forum with lots of experienced owners happy to give their advice and support. You also get lots of fun and friendship . I am not sure how much information you already know about corn snake keeping, so sorry if I am repeating information you already know...but it is better heard twice than not at all.
You certainly have been thrown in at the deep end with Logan and Alfie and an unplanned pregnancy! You are also on a steep learning curve now, not only are you learning about corns but also breeding, laying, hatching and babies. They are both beautiful snakes.
Am sure you have already browsed the TCS site and forum, and found that it provides great information. The best place to look is http://www.thecornsnake.co.uk/corn_snake_care_sheet.htm, it has lots of information for new snake owners. Also read this topic on 'Your 1st Snake' http://www.thecornsnake.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4133
You will find that there is a large amount of conflicting information out there about corn keeping – on the internet, in books, etc. Even on here you will find that people have different opinions.....but at least you have a place to ask what you need to know and get the answers from experienced owners. Then you can decide what to do with what you are told.
Unfortunately many pet shops cannot be trusted with what they are telling you . I know that I double check anything I am told on here. Remember that no question is regarded as a silly question .....it is much better asked and answered, you will probably find others who want the info too! As already mentioned, the first place to look is in the top right hand corner of the screen where there is a search button...type in what you are worried about and see if you can find an answer. You will find this especially useful with the research you need to do at the moment. I know you can get swamped with different topics including what you are searching for, so it is a bit daunting but worth a look. If you cant find the answer you are looking for then dont hesitate to ask!
When you got your snakes I hope you got as much info about them as possible....shedding history, feeding history etc. I keep my own 'Snake Diaries', noting things like weight, length, feeding dates and what you feed, shedding dates, health problems. I know it seems a bit over the top but it is actually really helpful keeping track of your snake's health - I even note when Kellog and Silvesta poo !!
Good luck with the position you have found yourself in....I realise it is not something you expected but now have to deal with and you need to deal with it as well as you possibly can....so start researching and preparing and if you cant find what you need then ask.
