    Corn snake watching TV???
    Umm...do Corns see well? His tank in the living room is in such a position that the TV is visible from one end. Last night he was poking his head out of that end and seemed to almost be watching my partner playing God of War II. :eek:

    He didn't seem at all annoyed or stressed by the TV, and after a while he slithered off around the other side. I was just curious if Corn snakes can see outside their tanks well.

    Well I'm not sure if there's so sort of attraction to the movement or whatever, but this big BCI used to watch hockey with my husband all the time. No one would ever believe it, so I took a picture. :)

    Oh I didn't mind Mike and the big snake watching hockey. It was when I'd get up to get a cup of coffee and hear this...

    "hey hon, while you're up can you grab me a beer!"

    "hey lady, while you're up can you grab me a rat!"

    hehehehehehehe

    Once I was taking pictures of my BP and, at first, I was really worried about the flash stressing him out. But, the more pictures I took the more he interested he got. It was so funny because he was being so cooperative and standing up so much it looked like he was posing on purpose!

    I definately think they like lit things.

    The Boa and the python make sense because the TV is basically a large heat source and boids with their heat sensing pits would be attracted to it. Corn snake though? I don't know, maybe it's the movement? Or can corn snakes somehow sense heat from far away too?

    I am not positive, but I don’t think they have heat pits. It they do, they are very small. I can’t see any on mine.
