r/cornsnakes

Hi everyone,

I recently saw the video of a beautiful wild corn snake with the piano belly!

I was wondering if this is a morph that people breed or is it only found in wild snakes? If so, would anyone be willing to link me to any reputable breeders?

Thank you!

Is this stress or is it just mating season activity?

When i got him they sexed him as a girl but last year he was doing this and suspected he was a boy but i just want to make sure that this isn’t a sign of stress and is actually just him being a boy.

Please let me know if you know 🙏🏻🙏🏻

(He is in a box as we are at the vet rn)

i saw these and wondered if the emmit any light and are suitable for night time heat?

Can someone explain to me why my cornsnake changes color suddenly when I clean her enclosure 3 days ago, she eat well but always curls up in her stone bed.. can someone help me if this is a sign of sickness or not. First time owning a cornsnake so I need help🙁

This is Raspberry Lemonade (Razz for short) we brought her home last month from a local expo. she was born 7/22/25 and the breeder kept track of her feeds, but there were none recorded from september thru december.

She was 14g at the last weigh-in 2 weeks ago and has been eating well, single pinkies F/T. I was thinking i need to switch to double pinkies to try and beef her up, any other recommendations to encourage her to grow big and strong?

She’s very active at night and loves exploring her whole enclosure, i’m pretty proud of the setup my girlfriend and i made for her 🥰 i love her so much already and she’s my first snake and i already want another one!

This little jackass was stubborn about moving up to bigger prey. He was taking a proper weight of pinkies (usually two or three) but absolutely refused to move up to hoppers. He decided to cooperate around New Year and has been growing like a weed since. He was barely 40 grams when he decided bigger mice were edible. He’s still pretty undersized for his age (hatched Feb 2024) but at least he’s gaining ground!

I am going on a 2 1/2 week trip across country and idk if my virn will be fine. she is two years old and is on hoppers about every 8 days, would she be fine if I fed her the day before I leave and the day I get back? or should I ask someone to defrost one and drop feed her? I have her lights all figured out so that part doesn’t matter but I’m worried about the feedings. I know they can survive for a while without getting a meal, but while it mess her up? Also snake tax, freshly shed 😊

edit: I do have someone to change the water, don’t worry I’m not leaving her with nasty water for weeks 😂

My corn snake’s lip has looked abnormal for a couple weeks. I though it had to do with shedding but it has not gone away.
Is it time for a vet trip? Or am I over reacting?

Edit: Scheduled a vet trip. Thanks again!

He was very brave throughout his photo shoot before being put back in the woods nearby

Hi, my snake has lately been having a problem shedding. Last time I even gave him a bath and started misting his terrarium, but he still had problems.

Any help with identifying the morph on my lil guy/girl would be appreciated! I’ve read up on morphs but I’m just not confident enough in my knowledge to determine for sure.

So I took my corn snake to the vet on the 14th just for a check up and now he’s being hostile and won’t let me hold him. Is there anyway I can make him trust me again? I’ve had him for about three months now and before this vet visit he was very friendly and would sit with me for long periods of time.

So i got my first Corn Snake 3 days ago and i think he is doing great? The guy i bought him from told me he is 4 months old and that he is a classic Corn Snake, so no other morph i think. He was pretty calm when i put him in his new home and is expolring it without fear. Yesterday he chilled on his warm spot, he only looked after my hand when i cleaned something.

I'm pretty happy, that he seems comfortable. But is this normal? Maybe i'm overthinking it, but i got told that young Corn Snakes are rather shy and need their time to adjust. So is he okay or just a calm little guy?

My boyfriend’s 22 year old corn snake has laid this clutch after having refused food for about a month and nonstop cruising around her tank. One of them looks distinct (larger and white)! She’s done this exactly twice before, once last spring and once about 5 years ago, without ever having produced a white egg. Why would this be happening at this point in her life? The only non human males she lives with are our two cats. Anyone experience something similar?

I recently took my snake outdoor for enrichment. He won’t stop glass surfing now. I took my snake out 3 days ago and now he won’t stop glass surfing. I recently changed the substrate and increased the humidity for his shed to 70-80% and admittedly after his shed it was hard to bring the humidity down for about 2 weeks but now the humidity is semi normal. When i place the digital reader on substrate it reads 65-76% but if I place it on the level where he rests his head it is 50%. The humidity reading are fluctuating between 40-76% and the temps are 20-24•C on cold side and 26-29•c on hot side. He’s almost 3 year old and is in a 120 gallon 4x2x2. I have attached the picture of the enclosure. I use coco fiber as bedding. I know the substrate wasn’t deep enough so i added more and it is now 3-4 inches deep. Is this normal? Should I take him to the vet? Or is it because he is in breeding mode now? Please help me
