Also could I see a Picture of the father aswell please!
If I can get one early you can hold it back but I still havent bought a viv etc. so
Also if I cant get it at the time dont hold one back as it could be over a year before I am aloud to get one

Geko

would love to get pictures of the farther if i new which one it was lol, she lives with 7 other corn snakes so not positive on which one was the dad.

although i do know that it was the same colouration as her. and there was only 2 possible fathers.

i can get some pictures of the 2 posible farthers on friday so will post them up on here for you possibly friday night.

p.s. as i will potentially have 27 babies, it wouldnt surprise if i still had some next year.

soooooo keep in touch and il give you as much advice as neeed.

Thanks cant wait for the pics
By the way I havent exactly ran the idea past my dad about getting a Snake yet but he said I could have a lizard and Corn Snakes are easier to keep than some lizards

Geko

lol no problem.

but you are right snakes are easier than a lot of lizards so im sure your dad should be ok with it lol

It's great you are doing some research Connor, but didn't you dad say you couldn't have nay more pets until your hamster and fish had passed away? You are looking at atleast a year.
What I would recommed is keep doing lots of research but don't get too involved in the ins and outs of buying one just yet, until you know for sure you can.
Don't want you being upset when you find the perfect snake that you can't have.

Corn Snakes are ideal beginner snakes though - just start saving up your money now, as £70 won't get you very far with reptiles. I know we were initially talking about insects, so that would have, but not reptiles - they are expensive pets to look after and vets bills etc.

Thanks everyone

Within that year there is my Birthday and Christmas in which i get an average of £140 and im also selling items on eBay aswell to gain more money. I also get £10 per month pocket money ( I used to get £20 but now have to pay a Phone Contract ) also my dad has said he will pay a lump sum in aswell.

I found a Corn Snake starter Vivarium set at £132 at Exotic Pets - Amphibian, Reptile and Invert UK exotic pet shop and Zoe might be holding back one of her Baby corns for me and I am willing to pay atleast £20-£25 for one.

The Vivarium Starter kit is as follows

Corn Snake Kit - Vivarium
Flat Pack 18"x15"x15" Vivarium (Oak, Limed Oak or Beech)
Light fittings + 40 wattage bulb
Heat Mat 7x12"
Habistat Temp Stat 300w
Two Exo Terra Thermometer Liquid Strip
Exo Terra Thermometer Dail
Exo Terra Medium Snake Cave
Cork Bark
Aspen Bedding - 5 Litre Bag
Exo Terra Medium Water Dish
AVS - Corn Snake Manual Book

Hope that gave some of you people an idea of what I have been looking around for

Geko!

sounds like you really have been doing a good job at what you need

well done !!!!

if you do get one of my snakes i will be very glad as u oviously are going to be a great owner for it

dont worry about the length of ime it will take as i dont care as long as the snake gets a good new home which it will

Thanks Zoe


Do you know what time you will be posting the father pics on friday because I am away from the 31st of July to the 4th of August

Geko

sorry conner but sadly iam unable to get the pics of the male as at the moment iam having to hand rearer a baby hamster and so cannot travel down to my college to take pics of the male as the hamster needs feeding every 2 hours and has to be kept warm.

really sorry mate but basically he is either pretty much exactly like the female or he has a completly orange head (with no markings on it) and dark orange markings down the body.

will get pics as soon as possible but probz wont be untill august the 14th

Btw my dad has decided that I am not allowed one I am really p**sid off!

My mum now says I cant get any exotic pets so I guess I will just move my expertise to tropical fish if it is possible I believe that this topic should now be locked and deleted and I will make a tropicla fish topic some other time.
