    Tired of these corms- rack owners PLEASE help

    So I'm geting tired, I moved my corns to my rack and they were
    baby tame, so after being in the rack, for about a 3 weeks
    they all are ready S-shaped hissing and tail rattling. At first they temp was 82, then with all my lizard lights, my whole ambiant room temp was 85. So I set the ranco down to 73. Still I go change there water and the slither toward back of cage hissing and ready to strike, and at first these
    were kid friendly know there hissing heatherns

    They have open sides. Might be a decent in compromise. Put them in a high traffic area.

    how are the corns when you take them out? Some snakes are just hissy when you first open up their tubs, but once they're out, everyone thing is just fine. We see this with many of our snakes, mostly the boas tho..

    Re: Tired of these corms- rack owners PLEASE help

    I have one of my corns in my 41qt rack since the heat tape in it doesn't work. (Ambient room temp is 85) She was calm even after the switch to being in a tub. The other corn lives in a tank and he's very aggressive until you actually take him out.

    Re: Tired of these corms- rack owners PLEASE help

    It might just be that they are still adjusting to a new environment. 3 weeks isn't all that terribly long for them to have been in there, so I would just keep handling them as usual, and they should calm down.
