    My corn would eat anything anywhere. My BP, if I moved her every summer, would probably take the whole summer to adjust and eat again!

    They get a good size too. They need a little more support and dart around little more than a BP (Corns are more active for sure), but are generally totally docile. I got Figment at 9G and he's now 640G and over 5 FT! He's a sweetheart. Squirmy when little, but they get used to being handled quickly once they realize you are not going to eat them. They also get more confidence with size.

    Does take a little while for them to grow since they are so small and eat such small prey items. I do not believe in overfeeding and Figment took 4 years to be full grown.

    Here's my thread on Figment. You can see how much he has grown!

    A corn snake was the first snake I owned and since have had boas, pythons, and other colubrids. We bought a normal corn snake for my fiance who was new to snakes and I totally forgot how cool they are! hes so curious and active I really enjoy having him.
    Yours is awesome looking! We just picked up a baby okeetee from Kathy Love, cant wait to see her grow into her colors.

    OP i second corn snake.
    I'm not your friend buddy!
