Nitroholic Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Got a milk snake and a tortoise Used to have a corn, but he died last year. He was over 20 years old, so not too bad. Quite fancy a Royal, as they are docile and easy to handle in the main. My corn was a feisty little beast who hated being handled. Was a very aggressive feeder, and had a go at me more than once. The milk snake just musks and makes a mess. The tortoise is just daft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royals are a bloody pain problem feeder Get anything but royals My big bot was on a 7 month fast and it seem after 2-3 months he back on the fast so no eating yet again I would recommend the brb or a crawl cay boas They are very docile abd feed like a train Or get some hog noses they can live in a 2 ft for all its life quite happy or get another corn The trick is witch snakes us they have to be handle once a week atleast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si Coe Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I have (or rather my eldest son has) a Corn Snake. First reptile I've ever had after years breeding small mammals. I find its the easiest pet to look after in the house. In fact the only problem I have with it is that the cats keep trying to catch him when I get him out. They don't seem to care when I'm handling the chinchilla's, and weren't interested when I had rats or degu's but somehow the snake looks like fun to them. My father in law has bearded dragons, but I really don't see the appeal. They can be exceptionally stupid at feeding times (as shown above) and are all spiky so not even good to handle.

Nitroholic Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Never fancied lizards ... pain when you go on holiday and need someone to feed them. Tortoise is easy once you get it into peoples heads that they don't eat lettuce! ...snakes you just feed up before you go. My old Corn just never ever liked being handled. Kept trying, but he just wanted to go back in the viv and never ever settled. If anything moved near his head, he would try and strike at it. Got tagged more than once feeding him Milky Joe, the milk snake was an escape artist! Until he got settled, he seemed to spend more time out than in! Was a problem feeder to start with, but would eat if you got him to open his mouth. He's just a bit lazy about food. Once we got him started, he was fine. Need something a bit more tolerant, and not a fussy feeder...and something that can live in a 6x2, coz that's all the space I got. I also am going to make damn sure I properly handle the actual snake I buy before I purchase. I have handled loads of corns, most of whom have been very happy to be held, twining round your hand/arm or settling on your hands...but not mine. He had a mean streak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huktonfonics Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) I have 3 beardies. Love these buggers, missus does too. Just a shame they don't like each other lol. They are Buzz ( the fat one by the skulls ) he's about 6 years old. Fat lazy fuss pot. My favourite . Derek the one climbing the headboard, he's about 2 now. Bit of a clown he is lol. The orange one is Dexter, straight up nut job alpha male he is. He's only about 6 months and I swear he's got the devil in him. The bigger ones submit to his head bobbing and shows.....apart from Buzz, he just don't give a hoot.....about anything. They're my lil fellas.
