Hi every one, I am so incredibly excited to announce I bought my second snake yesterday! Aaand she's not a corn, as was the plan.
I want to introduce every one to my new (nameless lol) Trans-pecos ratsnake!
To be honest I kind of always liked these better than corns & have researched them a fair bit, but I eventually decided on a corn because I thought a trans-pecos would be too hard to find. But lo & behold here she was! I got her at the hamburg reptile (which was INSANE btw, very chaotic).
I figured with a few small tweaks to the tank I had set up for a corn it could work well for her.
I was told she's almost a year old, but the guy working there couldn't tell me her exact hatch date, I'm assuming because there were a lot of people working at that booth so it seemed like a big operation, & she's 24g.
She's settling in now, hiding in the cool hide. Ambient temps are low-mid 70s & I have the UTH set to 87* so the glass temp is 86*, is that too high?
I'm also not sure when I should attempt to feed, if anyone could give any insight on that it'd be appreciated!
And heres some pictures I took of her on the ride home, isn't she just so sweet looking?
