I have actually been keeping snakes for 25 years. I LOVE to talk snakes. I remember the old days of KS.com when the forums were so busy they were like chatrooms. I got my first garter snake at 11 years old...a Florida Blue, I kept it in a large fish bowl with a glass pane over the top of it and used plastic turf...oh boy.

The first thing to remember about keeping snakes is it is easy. You need to provide the proper temperature, not multiple temps...just the hot end needs to be the correct temp and the enclosure will gradient out. After that the animal needs a clean, secure place to live and food and water...simple.

Feed your hatchling a single correct sized meal every 5 to 7 days and don't stress out, you'll stress the snake out. Put the food item in there at leave it alone check on it in half an hour at the soonest.

Right now I am mainly keeping Ball Pythons and GTPs. I keep Ball Pythons because I like morphs and breeding for a certain mutation. Corn Snakes are totally amazing. I had a 5 foot plus female wild type back when I was like 14 it was probably in the top 5 snakes I ever owned. Enjoy your snake and don't worry too much, they are tough as nails as long as you can meet the basic requirements
