MIAMI CORN

bakeaway May 20, 2003 05:47 PM

I JUST GOT A MIAMI PHASE CORN SNAKE. IT IS ABOUT 6 MONTHS OLD.
IS IT TRUE THAT MIAMI PHASE LIKES ANOLES OVER MICE FOR FOOD?
IT ATE A PINKY 2 WEEKS AGO BUT IS REFUSING TO EAT ANY AGAIN?

Some Miami locality corns do indeed prefer anoles, but it sounds like yours may not, and may just be temporarily 'off feed' (maybe about to shed?). But if it lasts much longer, I'd try scenting a pinky with anole brains, guts, excrement, etc., then try to 'wean' to plain old pinkies/mice.
