Welcome to the forum Snakecharmer! You have found a great place with lots of experienced owners happy to give their advice and support. You also gets lots of fun and friendship as a bonus. Not sure how much snake info you already know but would suggest the following (sorry if it is repeating knowledge you already have but better to be safe than sorry!)

1. Hopefully you will already know the one week rule - leaving the snakes to get over the stress of their move and settle into their new surroundings by leaving them without handling or feeding for a week. Only put your hand in daily to change water and straighten substrate, that way they gets used to your smell.

2. As suggested, make sure you read the care sheet on here, (http://www.thecornsnake.co.uk/corn_snake_care_sheet.htm) lots of information for new snake owners. Also helpful is this topic http://www.thecornsnake.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4133.

3. No question is regarded as a silly question on here.....it is much better asked and answered, you will probably find others who want the info too!

4. I hope you got as much info on your snakes when you bought them....shedding history, feeding history etc. Start your own 'Snake Diaries', noting things like weight, length, feeding dates and what you feed, shedding dates, health problems. I know it seems a bit over the top but it is actually really helpful keeping track of your snake's health - I even note when Kellog poos!!

5. As already mentioned - pic are appreciated, in fact it is an unwritten forum rule!

5 corns and a boa in just 3 months?! I dont think I need to warn you that snake keeping is addictive, you are already well down that path! The majority of us have stood up, said "hello my name is **** and I am addicted to corns/kings/lizards........!"
