Need Info

[Jay_Bunny]

Well I downloaded Metzcal and I am putting in all the information for a corn snake, since that's the only reptile I have at the moment.

I have the Family name: Colubridae
Main Species Name: Elaphe guttata

But I need to know other things just so its in there. I'm currently trying to find info online, but I'd like to see what you all can provide.

I need:

-The Minimum and Maximum lengths for a hatchling, adult male and adult female
-The Minimum and Maximum weights for a hatchling, adult male, and adult female
-Lifestyle, is it terrestrial, aboreal, semi-terresterial, ect.
-Is it nocturnal, diurnal, or crepuscular?
-Is it roundyear, hibernation, estivation?
-Is it a loner, or is it social? (I'm thinking loner on this one)
-Level 1,2,3,4,5, or ssP variable in aggressivness?
-I know it is found in the United States, but is it found anywhere else? If not, what states is it found in?
-Is it oviparous, ovoviparous, or viviparous?
-Multiple Clutch, parthogenesis, spermetophore, hermaphrodite?
-Mating Season
-When does the male and female reach maturity?
-Gestation period?
-Minimum and Maximum clutch size?
-Minimum and Maximum incubation days?
-Minimum and Maximum incubation temps?

I don't know some of those, but I'll give you my best shot.

-Terrestrial though they do enjoy climbing sometimes
-diurnal
-brumation if you're breeding them, otherwise keep them at same temps/humidity year round
-loner
-1, they are not typically aggressive, however hatchlings can be nippy because they are scared.
-here's a map of their range http://www.cincyzoo.org/Exhibits/Ani...snakerange.jpg
-oviparous as with all rat snakes.
-multiple clutches are often observed with captive breeding of corn snakes.
-breeding season is Nov-May
-breeding age varies a bit, but males typically by 18 months, and females around 3 years of age
-From ovulation to egg laying - 6-7 weeks, then another 65 days of incubation before hatching.
-6-12 eggs/clutch
-incubation temps 82-85

Thanks. I'll add that information in.

Shelby to the rescue .Not all corns need brumation though in order to breed succesfully .
