Since I'm a nice person I do just what everyone tells me, so when I saw the "Introduce youtself here" thingy, well, I'm gonna do just that.

Anyhow, right now I'm not actually keeping anything, but I'm gonna purchase a Corn in the near future, which will be my first reptile (a long time wanton of mine) So now, I've got 1 request and one question (to start with anyway. *cough*).

First for the request, if there are anyone out there with some nice little piece of experience they would like to share, a little trick with a snake in general and a Corn in particular, I would be happy to see it. (I have read an odd number of caresheets, instructions and so on so forth, what I'm looking for is that thing you just have to learn the hard way =)

And so for the question, I have seen several refering to the animals they keep with numbers such as 0.0.1 <insert snake here> or perhaps 0.1 <dito> whatever does those numbers mean?

That's all for me for now, cheers!

The first number is males. The second is females. The third is unsexed.

males.females.unsexed :DCool! It's good to see someone doing some research before they get a reptile. Welcome to the site.

There is a corn snake forum. Maybe you will find your answers there. Everyone is friendly and helpful here. Some are just plain crazy.

Yep,
While I've only kept a corn snake for a short period once (before giving it to a friend), it was a great little snake and if I could have, I'd have kept it. It was cute, tame and the greatest little eater! He ate a small mouse in 4 minutes, and it takes my carpet pythons 15 minutes to eat a large mouse. lol.

Yep, say you have 1.2.3, it means you have one male, two females, and 3 of unknown gender.

Greeting and welcome on board. My name is Chuck and I live the southeastern United States. My main interest is North American pit vipers, but I also know a little about giant pythons. Let me know if I can be of any help.

its good to know that you are doing some research before you buy. that is the smartest thing you can do besides buying your new herp. trust me, the new corn you are getting wont be your only one. kinda like tattoos, you get one then you are addicted
