[lauramoreparawhore]

"this is a quorn snake"

[Headsetjones]

I came watching this video.

[pimpmix1]

Can a young corn snake come down with RI if the tank is 30 - 50% humidity but the tank has been sprayed once a month roughly?

[092601abc]

corn snakes arent all red.. my cousin has 2 and their orange and other is pink...

[ellokito100]

do corn snakes eat crickets? im getting 1 but idk if they do

[rosswilson31094]

@ellokito100 No! Frozen/Thawed Mice is what they eat

Good Luck with your new pet if you get one!

[samverwimp]

why are they naturly red it oisn't a good camouflage

[ChiefOfLife]

A regular corn snake doesnt look like this. This is a different morph

[goudz23]

what kind of dog is this?

[jezez2]

cornsnakes do NOT eat corn...... good to know

[bandman232]

awww she's so curius

[rocker816]

so as i see it corn snakes are generally the most easy to handle. i'm just starting out researching snakes. and me and my friend wanna get one thats nice to handle. slash if possible cheap. but what are some negatives to corn snakes for beginners? i kinda know how to handle corn snakes because i've held one or two.

[iouakick]

@rocker816 as far as snakes go, corns snakes, king snakes, ball/royal pythons are great for beginners with corns being the least expensive of the three in my experience. negatives...well, nothing major, frozen mice in your freezer, little bit of extra power being used for its heat mat/lamp. Vet bills can be pricey if your snake gets sick, but if you read your care sheets throroughly and have good husbandry habits that shouldnt be a problem.

[JK1491]

How can they describe what a corn snake looks like from a bloodred stripe morph that looks nothing like the original carolina!

[Lukaz1989]

what a beautiful and carm snake..i visited a cornsnake breeder 2 days ago and actually handled a few of those and its amazing especially if you've never done that before..not cold or glitchy at all but very strong muscles..you wouldnt expect them to be that strong if you have no clue..!

[classiclistener01]

@expertvillage

You're right and wrong - the name cornsnake comes from these snakes hunting in corn fields, but ALSO from the Indian corn pattern on their undersides (Oxford English Dictionary as far back as 1676). Check it out.

[RenatoandEric]

The coloring of this corn looks like a bloodred morph but the pattern looks like a striped.

[punchdrunk09]

it is a bloodred hint why no checkered bottom im pretty sure. it looks motley pattern cant get a good look at the top though

[bapkate]

Great video!

The type of corn you see here is a striped corn snake, which you will probably not see in the wild (unless someone's pet escaped!). Very pretty though.

[SuperShelbz1]

corn snake! but both make great snakes! i have a creamsicle corn snake hatchling!

[classiclistener01]

These are both GREAT pet snakes! With a cornsnake, you can add other cornsnakes, ribbon snakes, gartersnakes, etc. from their geographic areas - except milk snakes, kingsnakes, indigo snakes as these are all cannibalistic except during mating seasons. If you only plan to get one snake - get either. If you think you may add to the terrarrium, get a cornsnake. I've been working/playing with these for 35years and know them well. If you have ANY questions, write to me. Merry Christmas.

[123patrick4567]

Yo i got question

Im thinkin of gettin a corn snake

are there any diseases i can get from having one?

How fast do they grow, and are they tame enough to hold and play with alot?

[saint10210]

@123patrick4567 you can't really get a disease from them unless they themselves are sick so i suggest buying from a breeder and if not make sure its a good pet store but i don't recommend you buy one from a pet store. They are actually very tame and from what ive noticed from experience like to be played with. They don't bite unless you push them too but they won't unless you smell like food or act like food. I just got one and she is very tame and the more you play with it the easier it gets.

[RenatoandEric]

The more they eat, the faster they grow. But remember, overfeeding can cause health problems and greatly effect their lifespan. Weekly feedings of apropriatly-sized meals are ideal for corns, and the feedings can slow down to once every 2 weeks or so for adults (but they can still be fed weekly). As for tameness and handling, they are one of the tamest snakes on the market! Hatchlings can be a bit snippy, but with regular handling they calm down and make extremely docile, rewarding pets!:D

[metalmad01]

hey how often do you feed a adult corn snake?

like 1 a week 1 a month??

[RenatoandEric]

I feed once a week from hatchling to adult. An adult can be fed once every 2 weeks or so and do just as well:)

[bobsagetrules2]

I have both. Depends on what your looking for really both are fairly docile, and easy to handle. If you want one that stays around 3 to 4 foot. a pueblan milk snake is perfect. If your looking for a broad variety of color variations then the corn snake.

[janston1995]

everythings right except them being constrictors. Pythons and Boas are constrictors. they do when eating but all snakes do im not hating i just want people to know the real facts 4/5

[AchmetTheDeathBitch]

only around 15% of all snakes are venomous so 85% are constrictors. if a snake is not venomous it's a constrictor. a Corn snake is a constrictor, cause they don't have venom. you can check YouTube, search for Corn Snake killing prey and (for Example) cobra killing prey you see that Corns don't have venom

[bobsagetrules2]

How the snake kills is by constriction. The same way in which boas and pythons do. And to Achenet your percentages maybe a tad off there are some snakes that neither constrict nor use venom to kill prey. Garter snakes don't constrict i've watched them eat fish alive as well as frogs and tadpoles. Hognose snakes are the same. They bite and start swallowing bout it.

[drillmaster180]

most snakes are constrictors

[luisitogangster]

do you think an adult corn snake can fit in a 10 gallon tank??

[111olbap]

nope

[Gr8danesRck]

I wouldn't suggest it, I'm getting one and everyone has been telling me to get a 40 Gallon....I have a 10 gallon fish tank, that would be enough for a baby....when a snake can't stretch out straight in a tank...it's too big for said tank.

Hope that helps!

-Em

[RenatoandEric]

Hell no! They should stay in a 40 gallon.

[dynamicz108]

Whats the name of this variation? cos i cant understand her accent

[111olbap]

?? She has no accent

[dynamicz108]

She has an American accent you idiot! r u deff or somthin?

[SageZane]

lol... porn snake.....

[strwatford]

are there any corns that stay small?

[undertheunknown]

Uhm, not really I'd have to say. They get 3-5 ft, but really, in the snake world that is pretty small. It takes about 2 1/2 - 3 years to reach adult size.

[GearsMan4083]

a corn snake is 380.00 dollars

[JoshatSuzuki]

no, check your local classifieds. some designer species may be, but you can buy them for very little or even free....

[cornsnaker]

I sell designer babies for $40

[iplehguitar]

it depends on your source

[heavyartilery12]

ok i havent been bitten yet but im afraid of like yanking her of and hurting her wat should i do??

[99halo3master99]

i like snakes so can you buy them in a pet shop and for how much

[iSparkle999]

i got mine for 90 dollars

[slyrez]

it reely depends if u buy a snake i would most likly buy it from petsmart. i got mine for 80 bucks but everything else could be 150-300 altogether all they things were 300

[thescallykiller]

im not so sure you should be handling this snake when he is  preparing to shed as they dont like it. They feel very itchy when they are about to shed

[heavyartilery12]

well all snakes are difrent my snake kinda gets bitchy. but it dosent bother them to get out a lil bit.

[morphavolo]

ya but it doesnt hurt that bad just scares u a little

[morphavolo]

a one

[morphavolo]

ya they don't just bite you...you have to really piss it off cause corn snakes are really don't bite...the only reson you would get bit is if it mistaken ur hand as food which you can reduce that factor by feeding it in another tank but i still hand feed mine and in his tank and he hasnt bitten me.....

[morphavolo]

1 for 5 years and ive been biten but it was when he was a baby cause i was new to snakes and i was stupid...if u just research the snake before you buy it (which i didnt a first =P) ull be fine they are really cool =)

[morphavolo]

he never tries to bite me when i feed him

[2014MD]

yeah, just don't piss it off ;)

[GodzillavsChuckNoris]

I'd first use a snake that already shed it's skin as to show off it's full beauty. I'd also wouldn't use a blood corn because they aren't found in the wild, but are exclusively captive breed (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong). An Okeetee or Miami would have been a better choice.

If you want to do a better job at showing off reptiles, I suggest you "Expert" people look up Snakebytestv here on Youtube.

[alfie2893]

do they just get these people off the street and tell them to do their best and make it up!!!!!!!!!

[halfpint299]

i have one, it is almost 3 ft. long, but mine is not friendly at all, got him when he was a baby and was never friendly always jumpy, my other corn that i have is super friendly..

[xtubejr]

Try handling it more.

[superbrunosuper]

lol she is talking about a normal corn but she shows a linear corn snake, thats why the snake don't have the characteristics that she said corn snakes have.

[TheHyruler]

How old is that snake? please tell me?! i am plannign to buy oen to and that one seems about 1.3 meter i think??

please tell me, i am gettign one in a month

[needsalife1029]

it looks pretty old. prob 3-5 years old

[jarock711]

corn snakes also range in the upper states as well as canada where the black rat snake is commonly found also the fox rat snake is found in Michigan, Wisconsin and other eastern states!!!!!!!!!! Read your facts before you preach them you dumb ass. Zing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dinomanj]

its named by the corn coloring from its color smart 1

[SteelGunner3900]

I had an albino cornsnake,unfortunately he died :(

[NICJEN2008]

probably because you watched this video. sad though:(

[Zeke4448]

Are corn snakes nocturnal?

[Draker73]

Most of them prefer to come out at night, althought some like to be very actif during the day. My "Butter" cornsnake is mostly nocturnal.

[Zeke4448]

OK...thanks alot man...cause my snake mostly comes out a night...

[Draker73]

I know, kinda makes me mad that shes never out to greet people when I want to show her off! :( But I guess that's just her personality and instinct/comfortability.

[Zeke4448]

yea...so i take him out...but he is all sluggish and tired...so its pretty awkward..lol

[Draker73]

How old/big is he/she?

[mikikly]

i'm guessing it's some kind of bloodred corn...

[snakezillla]

Nice snake wht morph is tht like it alot i have a caramel.

[daniel14snake]

i want a corn snake for cristmas, hope i get it!

[Heatseeker872591]
