Look what followed me home from the reptile show today...

[DonMeyer]

Hmm still for a late that means its a year old.

Oh well as long as you feed him properly it should grow out to an average size.

[Tigergenesis]

I re-weighed him the other day and the reading was 154 grams. That's 45 grams more than the day I brought him home - must have messed up the first weighin. I should have no problem getting some weight on him - he eats with more gusto than my kingsnakes. He about flys out of the cage.

do snow corn snakes bite

[Tigergenesis]

Anything with a mouth can bite. Just like other snakes if you provoke it (have the scent of prey on you, etc) it may bite. But corns in general are a species that is less likely to do so - say compared to bullsnakes, etc. But then again just like people they are each individuals. Many can be calmed/tamed with regular handling and respect. A lot of snakes are more jumpy and nippy when young, but grow out of it. Mine is as gentle as can be. I've never heard anyone attribute a more agressive behavior to a particular corn snake morph.

how would a snow cornsnake bite fill

[Tigergenesis]

Out of my 7 snakes I've been bitten 0 times. So I can't really answer that. Have you ever been bitten by a snake yourself?

[SnAkELoVeR]

NO I HAVEN'T

[Tigergenesis]

Well I've always heard the bites aren't as bad as you'd think.

[Marla]

But if bites are your main concern, maybe you should try something else instead, like a leopard gecko.

i dont think it would hurt to bad, i havent been bitten by a corn snake but i have been bittin by a baby burm and that didnt hurt very much.
