Five Things I Learned From Wiki-How
Excerpted from the article Care for a Corn Snake
1. You should provide a bowl of water for your snake, big enough for it to soak if it wishes.
2. Inbreeding is best avoided.
3. It is best to feed your snake on frozen/thawed mice as they will not injure it and it's much more humane. You can also keep frozen mice for longer as they will not grow or die. To feed, hold the prey item in the tweezers and wiggle it in front of your snake.
4. Do not handle a snake after it’s eaten for 48 hours. Wash your hands before and after handling your snake. If it struggles, do not put it back but persevere or it will never learn to be friendly.
5. When your snake’s eyes glass over it’s time for it to shed...You may want to measure and laminate the shed as a record.
Vom.
