Thank you John, that was the type of answer I was looking for. It's not that I am totally inexperienced. But like everyone else who has ever been new to the hobby, you can here ten different opinions about how to raise one animal, who's right? I've seen breeders of animals that had horrible husbandry, but yet the animals still breed. And I've seen the small collector who is more up to speed on the species care and breeding then most vets are. Again, who does one believe? I used to keep my green anoles and green tree frogs together, because I've heard several people say that you could. It wasn't till my frogs started getting sickly looking that I seperated them and now they are doing wonderfully. Lesson was learned.

As far as my snakes go, I consider myself very lucky (and diligent) in their care. Out of the five corn snakes I have, they are all awsome feeders never refusing a meal even when they are about to shed, never have regurged (well except one once when her heat got unplugged by accident) and are extreamly tame and calm.



Thanks again John for the honest reply. I appreciate it.
