Hi,
Just an odd observation while we are discussing different species in racks.
When I moved the corns into the colubrid rack I also moved my african house snake.
While I have to say the corns seem fine (as usual
) the house snake has actually changed dramatically.
I was worried the extra space would freak him out initially and also worried about changing his hides for snugger fitting ones (coconut shells to terracotta drip trays ) he seems to absolutely love it. To the extent I actually feel guilty for not moving him into this type of enclosure years ago.
Male african house snakes have a reputation of eating only 50 -66% of the time (when offered once per week ) but since the move my guy has eaten every single week unless he was in blue.
His whole body shape has become stockier as well and he just seems a lot more robust.
I wondered if this was because the new rack has much more subdued lighting plus the tighter hides?
The temps are the same as his old enclosure but the humidity is a fair bit higher in the tub.
I definately plan on trying sinaloans in the rack if I manage to find any at a price and quality I like.
I just wondered if anyone else had similar experiences.
