Releasing a wild snake that has been in captivity for some time has its own set of problems. One could introduce a disease or something into the wild population and could cause serious problems. Now that the snake is in captivity... I think it more responsible to keep it there.

I agree with Shad0w... by "captive snake" I meant a snake that is in captivity, not necessarily one that was bred in captivity.

Ummmm, did you say he defecated the next day after the meal?? Maybe I'm wrong but, it should take alot longer than one day for a snake to digest it's meal. The defecation you saw was probably one he's been saving for awhile. It is normal for snakes to defecate when sheeding or shortly after. As I said though, I could be mistaken. Corn's aren't my thing.......
