Meh, corn is my least favorite. I like my balls and boa better. Not a huge colubrid fan. Corns eat anything and everything though, garbage disposals they are.

I don't own a corn because I just don't like their size and the way they look.
And I'm not a huge colubrid fan either.

Corn snakes are awesome...my first love when it comes to snakes, and will always be among my top favorites. Gorgeous patterns, colors, hearty eaters...they stay a nice size, and are generally super docile. As babies, they're a bit nuts with tons of attitude. Right now I have one butter corn...am always on the fence when it comes to possibly getting some more in, but it's not likely to happen.

I don't like how thin they are. They're quite quick too.

I only have a corn because it's owner moved out and just left it here... So I guess it's mine now :p

I love corn snakes!! We have 5 and all of them are fantastic! :-)

I wasn't really a fan until a friend had a runt hypo female who refused to eat, and she just stayed put as her siblings were sold off. She did eventually come around to food, and I decided to bring her home. She has proven to be the nicest snake I have ever owned, and she now has the best appetite. A little ways down the road, someone returned her sunkissed sibling, and I attained him. He, however, will try to kill and eat you any chance he gets.

Well, 2 of my biggest ones like to come out of there hides and watch me clean their poo up. Lol I've recently acquired a snow(Not my favorite morph, may or may not sell him later) and he is really bi-polar. One second he will rattle his tale and bite at you, and the next he is perfectly fine. He's a strong feeder though. My blizzard male is real finicky. He goes on and off feed and has regurged 3 times. I think he is going through some weird stage. Lol He's doing good now though. My favorite is my little charcoal girl. She is just really curious and basicly a sweetheart. She has also never given me any problems as far as feeding goes. That's all I have for now.

I love my corn snake! She was my first snake. And she is a tank. I get offers all the time from fellow breeders if I 'ever want to get rid of her'. But I love her. She's a very high white, lacey Butter.

Her enclosure is beside my computer desk at home, so if I'm in the room, she's out and watching me. If I look at her, she'll parascope up and tilt her head at me, flicking her little tongue as if to say: "Feed me? Please?"

I do love ball pythons, but she was a long time coming. I wanted a corn snake since I was a kid, you see. And she was exactly what I was looking for. Exactly.

She's a handful when she's out for the first 15 minutes or so, but calms right down. She's the snake I take to plenty of educational events that we do locally as part of our reptile society. People tend to approach her even if they're scared of snakes, because she is 'pretty'. (Another reason I need another BP morph to bring too). A ball python tends to trigger the 'big snake' response from some people. But Irileth is slender and I think that sometimes helps. Because she is long, I can also hold her head away with one hand and offer her tail to people who are scared, and it creates a bit of 'distance' between the part they're scared of (getting bitten).

Overall, she's hilarious. She drags her mouth along the side of the glass when she's really hungry and I'm feeding the other animals first. To take her food off the tongs, some days she'll strike and take the tongs with her. Other days, she just politely puts her mouth over it and starts eating right off the tongs.

She's my girl, and I wouldn't trade her for the world. :gj:

Because my corn is still small she's still a butt head, however she was my first snake. Her personality is coming alive all the time. We recently moved her cage and before I could cover most of the sides she built her tunnels so she can watch us, especially in the kitchen.. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/18/ujyjy6aq.jpg

Colors! I really love the bright reds, oranges, yellows and pinks especially! It it also nice that corns are easy keepers, who eat reliably and frozen / thawed prey, don't get too huge or take up much space and are usually quite easy to handle. With thousands of morph combinations possible and their ease of care, it's very easy to collect a lot of them. However, I will say that I don't enjoy handling my corns as much as I enjoy handling my boas and pythons. They are just much more quick and wiggly. Definitely not as "cuddly" as ball pythons! Oh well.....

I agree I like the colors and patterns. I have no ill tempered corns at all.

And this is one of my favorite things.

Can't wait till this one gets big enough to put to my Het Anery, possible Het Amel Charcoal Tessera.

I love them because of what they did for herpetoculture

Great reason!!!

I think "normal" corns are one of the most groovy looking snakes on the planet. Still one of my favorite snakes to find in the field.

Corn snakes are Awesome! They don't get TOO big (though tell that to the ghost I had not long ago), they are one of the easiest to care for, they have great appetites (except for that one period in their lives when they go totally off feed), and are quite docile when adults. So many colors, too! And they're just the right amount of active to be fun to watch in the evenings. :D

Right now, we only have 1 corn - our pink snow female (OK she's my partner's snake technically), but I am already looking to get another soon, especially since we agreed I would not get any new BPs until we have a generator. :)

This is her most recent pic:

so right about that i still enjoy finding normal / wild corns

A blizzard corn was my first ever snake. I let her go and still wish that I hadn't when ever I think about her. She was gorgeous and had NO trace of pattern what-so-ever. I plan to get some more in the future but I'm not sure exactly when. I am also getting my BCC back from the people that watched her while I was deployed and will be getting a large tortoise when I get home, too, so it may be a while for the until the corns make a comeback in my collection. I love them because they were my first and for the same reasons that I love balls - so many paint jobs!

Hard to beat the orange on my creamsicle girl, my jungle is a complete beast that will eat ANYTHING, and my Carmel... Well he just eats, poops, and looks pretty lol

I loved all of my Corns for their various personalities. They were all very different from each other. My big girl, Apopha, was my first ever snake and really got me hooked on reptiles (snakes especially). Even though I have since thinned my collection down to just a few, I don't believe I will ever truly get out of having Corns. They are tons of fun! I do have to admit, though, they are eating/pooping machines. :D

Corns are what got me in to snakes. We have two currently, a motley sunglow and a coral snow. The sunglow has such an awesome personality. When I walk in to the room she is immediately up poking her nose at the top of the cage to come out and play. The snow is a bit flighty but gentle as can be. Im new to balls and quickly starting to enjoy them but corns are still my first love :D

I have 1 ball python, 1 boa, 1 king snake and 25 cornsnakes :)
I love corns. So many colors and I only have one who is nasty, he hatched July 16 thinking the world is out to get him lol!
He wants a piece of me!

I really enjoy the personalities and the willingness to eat what ever I put in front of them.

This is my coral snow, he can be a bit nippy, but I love him nonetheless. They have such active and in the go personalities! http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/30/tehehypy.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/30/ma8uhyhu.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/30/a9evu8u4.jpg

My daughter has a Anery corn. He is a great eater and has a great personality.
They sit together and watch tv and he is never been nippy or grumpy even in shed.

Corn snake like to SCRAM.
