My Snakes

I now have 3 Corn Snakes. I do have to admit that I have a fear of snakes, I guess to a degree eveyone does. This makes my decision to get back into snakes a weird one I guess. But there is something about Corn Snakes for me that makes me over come that fear


This is Gooner, the first Corn that I got. She was bought from a lad in Kerry and for a first for me, was bought without seeing. A friend collected her for me. She is totally laid back. 3 years old and about 500g she is ready for a bit of hankie pankie with my male.

 
 
This is ButterBall, a male Corn. He is a big boy, I have not weighed him in awhile but he, I think, is over a kilo, and seems to go on for ever when I take it him. A good strike feeder, he has taken the tongs out of my hand with the power of his strike.


And finally, we have Rubix, a shy female who went into a self induced cooling over the winter. She is a lovely snake, very timid and not a great strike feeder. She is due to go into ButterBall for some snake hankie pankie. So watch this space :)

And I do have a Bearded Dragon, who needs a whole entry for herself
