*Why does anyone still call them Corn Snakes? Ignorance from 17th century farmers must be dispelled; they don't eat corn! It's okay to use the proper species name - really.*





I really enjoy Rat snakes, but my former Everglades was a disappointment. He was very reclusive, stubborn and was seldom active during the day.



Red Rats are known to be mostly diurnal, but south FL morphs like the Miami may tend toward nocturnal habits (and preferring anoles over mice).



Each snake is an individual, and can vary in traits or behavior. Is your generally active during the day?
