I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you
Found him!! =) just this morning he was in my printer =) took a good few hours to get him out =S but now hes safe and secure in his viv =) sooo relieved =) once hes settled in ill add photos =) |

=( he escaped from his viv sometime on Wednesday or Thursday =( iv read the forum on what to do so i have water tubs about the house, some bottle traps, his viv is now on the floor and open just incase he returns =( iv turned off all the heating in the house so that if he wants heat he will need to go back to his viv, iv put makshift hides in all rooms aswell and check them regularly and everything is off the floor , i have nothing on the walls as i have just moved house and no books or anything like that at my new house the only thing that is concerning me is that although the downstairs is floored the upstairs is just jip rock stuff so there are holes around all the radiator pipes so if he got up stairs and is in one of them how would i get him out without ripping up the floor? =S |

Aww it's great that his shed went well! No, you don't have to wait to feed after they've shed. Some snakes (like Corno) feed when in blue whereas others won't. They can be fed straight away though without a problem :) |

Thank you =) And can anyone tell me is there a period of time you shouldn't feed him after he sheds? =) The pet shop fed him on Sundays and he shed yesterday but i still fed him cause I didn't want him going hungry ,It wasn't till today i wondered if i shouldn't ... he is acting fine though, i am just a worrier =) |

You may also want to put summin on the floor of whatever he's in just so the substrate doesnt get soggy :) |

With Corno I just popped some moss in one of her hides because she previously had bad sheds with us. It may be best to wait and see - most snakes don't need help I don't think?
Edit - Just in case that wasn't clear, it was sphagnum moss (probably spelt incorrectly!) from the shop where we got Corno.
Thank you =) that is really helpful =) I will wait and see then try that if there is a problem =) my partner thinks i worry too much about him =S but i don't want to do anything wrong so he will just have to put up with it haha =)
Corno is gorgeous =) what Morth is she? |

i was just wondering if i should do something like that, sorry for my ignorance but can you buy it in a pet shop or can you make changes to the current hide on the warm side to achieve this? I have read alot on shedding but so many things say different things it would be nice to know what people with corn snakes do =) |

Hey sorry didn't notice this post , Yeh i think he might be, since this pic hes calmed down and hasn't came out of his hide, was worried at first as we had just got him and he is our first snake =S but i was looking at him yesterday and his eyes are definitely misty and his colours have dulled right down so im a bit less worried but hope everything goes ok for him =S |
