My kids (yep, the homeschooled ones) are making very interesting observations about the snakes... We think the female is about to shed, and lately, the male has coiled around over her.. The kids have told me he's protecting her since she's about to shed.
Is there a site - kid friendly - about corn behavior? We have 4 corns, 2 are hatchlings and 2 are about 4 yrs old. The hatchlings act totally different, and the adults have quite a few differences.
Loving the lessons they are learning! We have one tank heated by bulbs, and 2 heated by under tank heaters. While the "room" temp is the same using either, the substrate is warmer on the under tank heaters. The kids have not noticed whether this makes a difference in where the snakes prefer to hide.
However, the 2 adult snakes come out every morning we first start school and "cruise" around the tank some. The kids think they are saying good morning. (they are 8, 9, 9)
