    Re: when do ya'll see your corns

    I see different ones different times of day. Some I never see, others never hide. Depends on the corn.

    Some will say its OK to refreeze once. I personally never refreeze an animal. If its thawed and doesn't get eaten, it goes into the trash.

    Re: when do ya'll see your corns

    I never refreeze, but then again I can't remember the last time I had a meal refused by any snake.

    When I had my corn, she was on no schedule for activity. Some days she liked mornings, others evenings, and certainly she was out sometimes at night.

    Corns in the wild will hunt both during the day and the night, but are more prone to daytime hunting than many other snake species (particularly pythons which are mostly notoriously nocturnal)

    Yup, every 7 days. With my adult males I feed every 10-14 days.

    Re: when do ya'll see your corns

    My baby corn is pretty active at night, and early in the morning... he's always cruising around (especially near feeding day), and also loves to "bask" on top of his hide. Guess they're all different!

    Mine is pretty active and curious. When he hears me walk into the snake room, he's out of his hide and up against the glass.
