Corn Snakes (Pantherophis guttata) As Pets

 


You might be surprised to know that not all snakes are hard to manage. In fact, corn snakes are one of those that are quite easy to manage and care for. This is one reason why pet corn snakes are popular with many pet reptile enthusiasts. Not only are pet corn snakes easy to care for, but they are also considered to have a mild temperament which makes them perfect for first-time reptile owners. Corn snakes have a long life: they can reach up to 23 years of age when properly cared for (and with good nutrition) in captivity.
You might be wondering about the size of the right enclosure for such a pet snake. To give you an idea, a 2-feet long pet corn snake can live comfortably inside a 15-gallon tank with a secure, escape-proof cover or lid. Don't forget to enable a temperature gradient inside the tank.

Sudden changes in your pet’s behavior should be brought to the attention of your veterinary clinic Crown Point IN.
