i just brought another corn today a 3ft normal in a 2ft viv and the mat is inside the viv under the aspen with no mat stat and the woman that owned it just let the corn lay underneah the mat cos the hide was to small for the snake and the water bowl wasn't even big enough for my 4 mnth old corn Apophis and this new one is near on 4ft corn and the mat is nearly the size of the tank and the water bowl was sitting on the heat mat.So i brought all new stuff what it needed today as well it was'nt bad cos the corn and viv only cost me £35 |

yea i could'nt believe it when i saw it, and she was only feeding it 2 small mice every 8 days, i just fed it about 2 hours ago a large mouse and it was a big one and the poor thing wolfed it down like it had'nt ate for a mnth.the only thing is it looks like it has minor burns on it like smoke marks on a wall after a fire it has them on it's head and down it's body. |

I dont mean to sound like im having a go Josh but asides from having no way to regulate the temperature, You have sticky tape INSIDE the viv? If anyone has ever had to remove a snake from sticky tape you will know why this shocks me (you could kill a snake your size trying to remove it)...ticking timebomb in my opinion. Just lay the newspaper under the aspen it dosnt need sticking. |

Yes, I realised this, and focused on it. The tape is flat down, as flat as can be, and compressed tightly with hides and substrate. |
