Corn or King snake?

I beg to differ! My pet rock is super easy to take care of! xD

 

Green tree python! dooo itttt

 

lol Did they do anything or just tell you to let it leave.

Thankfully, I don't live any further south anymore. Once you get down towards lake Okeechobee, pythons become an issue.

 

I used to live in Ft. Lauderdale. Pythons are a huge issue down there, as I am sure you are well aware of.

 

LFS gets them in all the time, not a fan of the 499.99 price tag though

relocated it to a place without people.

Coral springs is just outside of Ft. Lauderdale. I don't remember hearing too much about pythons when I lived there but that was 10 years ago.

VA Reef,

I got a corn snake for my daughter 4 years ago. When we got her she was about 12 inches long and as thick as a pencil. Now shes 51" long as thick as a 50 cent piece. Great snake easy to take care of and she holds it 3-4 times a week. She has been an extremely mellow snake, never aggressive once. We feed it live mice about once a week unless her eyes are cloudy & she is gonna shed. We got her from a site called poppy corns.com

Great breeder, awesome designer selection and a fair price. We got a butter motley & my daughter named her Banana. If you have any other questions ask away.

I would be careful feeding live! I saved a red tail boa once from a lady that was feeding it live rats. The rats bit her and clawed her. she was blind in 1 eye from live feedings.

And yes I know mice are smaller but they can still hurt a snake! At least give the mouse a whack against the table to knock it out or kill it right before you feed! I know it sounds "inhumane" or w.e. But so is letting your snake get hurt!

 

I have had both and in my experience corn snakes tend to be mellower. Granted there are many many kingsnake species that I have not been around opposed to cornsnakes that is 1 species with a couple subspecies last I knew. Another reason I like corn snakes is the extensive breeding programs with them, that, in general, have had more generations in captivity to make the unique morphs. I should add that while kingsnakes can do great on mice, many of them are "designed" to eat other snakes while corn snakes have evolved on a rodent diet.
