I have a 10 month amel corn snake that is going to need moving into a vivarium soon due to financial problems I can no longer afford to buy one.
I would like to see him go to a nice home if anyone is interested please let me know

I sparkle at you and you like it x

What size faun/viv is he in at the moment?? and how big is he?

Quite often you can pick up an old fishy tank or similar that'll do the job just as well at the local tip for a couple of quid.

Aside from problems with funding a new viv, (They can be chuffing expensive) are you getting on ok with the rest of it??

ok please dont take offence ... but why get him in the first place if you cannot afford to cater to his needs??? i never handled my first girl properly for near 2 months but shes a proper star now takes patience and perserverance.. they all act a bit freakish every now and then.. i reckon its the charm of being young-uns n some what fiesty..

yeah i hear what ya saying.. but surely even when things are bad even last thing you should consider even vaguely parting with are ya pets, i dunno maybe its just me n im the strange one but i thought animals regardless of what it was, are like ya kids they are part of the family.. and depend on you for everything ..ok yes can understand the *i cant afford it so go to better home*.. but sorry it just seems to be a big rise atm in people giving up too soon or novelty wearing off etc etc.I for one love my animals n kids to death, each time i consider a snake its do i have the space, time, money etc... i have had to sell and give up many loved but material things in the past to pay for me animals or stock freezer with food for me n kids.Fairy situations dont always stay tight forever.. dont be too quick in getting rid.. cause give it a few months ull only get another to replace what u gave up anyway.

Now now peeps, no need to start having a go. Funky fairy has decided to re-home her snake free of charge and offered it on here to people who like corn snakes and have access to good advice.

She could have just stuck it in free ads and sold it to some muppet who has no idea what they are doing so please don't get abusive.

The most important question is who lives close and has room for just 1 more???

Do they have to live close?? I drove to Luton (ish) to pick up Trio from Wolfspirit, that was a round trip of about 250 miles.
If I could, I'd have picked up about 5 more snakes in as manny months from members on here.
I've even had the offer out of 'fostering' the snakes in the past, until people are ready to have them back.

I'll speak to *grumbles* 'the boss' *grumble* and see if she'll let me do a foster out if you can't find anyone.
If that would help at all.
There would be certain conditions that would go with it as well unfortunately, but they would be nice easy ones.

Well i think your doing the right thing if and hope you find a good home for snakey.

If i were closer i'd concider it but we're packed to the rafters at the moment with all the babies and another clutch due soon.
