How big wasw your biggest corn?

bradley_skinner Apr 30, 2007 03:01 PM

Well, I would like to know, how big was (is) the biggest corn snake you have had or have ever found? Now, I haven't had one as a pet, yet, but when I was on vacation in the Florida Keys, on Big Pine Key, I found a monster. It had to be at least 6 feet long. Its not an exact measurement, but I was holding the head in my left hand, and just had its body in my right hand, and the tail was easily on the ground. I am around 5'11" by the way. It was a nice suprise for my sisters when they came up the trail behind me. Needless to say, it made me pretty happy, can"t say that much about my sisters though...

Probably my biggest is 1000g. This is my first year with corns so I dont know if that is big or not. She skipped her last two meals and is going into a shed cycle, Im crossing my fingers for a clutch.

C/mon lets see some pics!... (U sure it wasn't an Everglades ratsnake?) Biggest one I have is a WC five footer from North Carolina!
(I have found a 7 foot, 2 inch yellow rat in South East GA., Glynn county, only 4 years ago or so. Poor guy only had one eye - probably had an encounter with an Ignoramus)
