Hi everyone. I brought home my new baby corn snake (Chakra) last night, followed all the instructions for set up from the breeder -- but still I'm here awake in the middle of the night worrying if I've put enough air holes in his tub... can you let me know what you think (so I can get some sleep and stop worrying, lol)

Hope you can see in the photos: 6 holes on either side, and 4 more in the top of the tub above the 'cool' end of the tub.

Thanks very much.

And can you tell me -- what are those numbers (like "0.2.0") that so many forum users have in their signatures? what do they mean??

1.2.3 = 1 male, 2 females, 3 unknown. you only need include the 3rd number if you have any unknown sex otherwise just the 2 will do ;)

yours would be 1.0 Hypo Lavender Corn: 'Chakra'

First number is number of males, second females, third the number of " unknown sex " of the animals :-). So, if you had 1 male corn snake, it'd read 1.0.0.

0.1.0 late CB10 Carolina corn snake - Bazilishka
1.0.0 CB11 Abbots Okeetee- Little Twiddler
1.0.0 CB11 Hypo corn- Sebastianek
1.0.0. CB14 Butter Motley - Squidwood
0.0.2 CB18 normal/ Okeetee yearlings Bunny and Lalalishka
0.0.1 hognose
0.1.0 stable cat
0.1.0 house cat

Good choice on the hypo lav! Males are much more bright than females.

I can see from the pics that his eyes can pick up the camera flash really well. My hypo lav has the same thing!

Thank you... and good to hear about the males' colouring. Looking forward to watching the changes as he grows.

Let me ask you this -- is the flash okay then? I stopped snapping shots today, because the room he's in is low light and unless it is high noon the flash comes on automatically. Despite having to photoshop out the white/red-eye look, I was wondering if the flash lights could harm his eyes? Probably not, but I'm in this over-cautious new-snake-mum mood right now, LOL.
