Hi!

Apologies for not introducing myself elsewhere but only using the forum as a means to an end.

Moving in with my partner but unfortunately my corn snake isn't allowed to stay.

Full set-up included, 3ft Viv, Heat Mat, Bowl, Caves, Plants etc.

Around 18 months old, have owned since he was a hatchling, sex unknown (always referred to it as a "he" though). Sold to me by a reptile centre as a blood red but I'm not convinced.

Located in Northampton, Will happily deliver if not too far away - else maybe meet halfway?

Would rather he went to someone with experience although would consider giving to someone as their first corn **if** you can get the backing of other forum members - basically no freebie hunters please.

Thanks!

Chris

Just to add - ignore the heat lamp in the viv. It was sold to me by the reptile centre when I bought everything. Apparently it was needed but he has been more than happy on the heat mat alone for the past 18 months.

There is also a digital thermometer.

Thanks again.

Hi,

Yes there's a thermostat as well. There's also the small tank and the set of feeding tongues shown on top of the viv.

Thanks,

Chris

He's a diffused, so nearly right as a lot of people use bloodred/diffused interchangeably

Thanks for clarifying!

I was unsure as I've seen pictures of blood reds and they all seemed to be near enough a single dark red. Not the patterns as per mine!

Chris.

Is there some reason why you want him to go to somebody with experience?
Is he a difficult feeder, a biter or something?
I'm just asking to clarify for anyone interested. The more you can tell us about him the better chance you have of finding him the right home.

Hi!

Thanks for the question,

No there's no problems with him, feeds fine, sheds fine and has never tried to bite.

"Experienced" was probably the wrong word to use - I'm just trying to avoid people seeing the word "free" and then deciding they want a snake!

Thanks,

He is lovely, if it wasn't for the OH refusing to live in the same house as a snake then he wouldn't be going anywhere!

He's a stunning snake Chris.
Hope the right home is soon found.
I do understand your concern with the 'use' of words!!

he is lovely, i am working in Northampton as well at the moment and I am really tempted lol. I would need to know for sure about the sex though. As females can have complications and Id rather wait unitl i have to deal with that. I currently have an Amel Motley around the same age.

Hi,

Well you're more than welcome to come and have a look.

I wasn't aware of any complications specifically regarding females unless you're planning on breeding. Saying that I'm sure there are many people on here a lot more knowledgeable than me so I may be wrong!

Thanks,

Chris

Damn, you are 100 miles away... I have just put an add out asking for a 12 to 18 month male on preloved and this forum...
I wanted a good looking male to mate with my girl when she is older and bigger.
I could meet you at south mimms if you are interested Saturday afternoon and i would be happy to give you some fuel money?
PM me if you are interested
Thanks

Hi Sean,

Thanks for the interest.

I can't guarantee he's actually a "he" - I haven't had him sexed.

I'd happily meet you at south mimms but can't do Saturday I'm afraid. I could do Sunday evening around 7 if that's any good?

Don't worry about fuel money - I feel bad enough getting rid of him anyway, would make it worse if I was accepting money for him - I believe you can donate to this forum though? Maybe £10 donation as good will?

Thanks

Chris

Hi All,

Thanks for the interest but he was picked up by Rich this evening. He has gone to a good home with an experienced keeper.

All the best.
