    Extractions: (Elaphe guttata) Corn Snakes make wonderful pets. (Actually snakes in general make wonderful pets.) They are clean, quiet, hypo-allergenic and only need to be fed every week to three weeks. They make going on vacation a snap! Most of them tame down very quickly, especially ones obtained as captive bred babies. It has been very hard for me to find information on the Web about Corn Snakes specifically so I have composed a care sheet myself. Anyone with any information they think I should add to it please email me. HATCHLINGS FOR SALE Very Basic Corn Snake Care Baby Corn Snakes can be kept for quite some time in a 10 gallon fish tank. One adult should have a 30 gallon tank or larger. Bigger is always better! Obviously multiple adults need a far larger cage. They need a heating pad at one end of the tank so they can move back and forth adjusting their body temperature. There are under tank heaters that can be purchased at most pet stores.

Snakes are members of the Class Reptilia, a group that also includes turtles, alligators, crocodiles and lizards. Snakes and lizards are similar in many ways, but there are some important differences. A clear, non-movable scale covers the eyes of all snakes, whereas most lizards have moveable eyelids. Most lizards have legs, but some are legless. The slender glass lizard, which lives in the southern half of Missouri, is an example; it looks like a snake because it has no legs, but like all our lizards, the slender glass lizard has moveable eyelids and external ear openings, both of which are lacking in snakes. In addition, lizards have a pair of lungs, while most snakes have an elongated right lung and either no left lung or only a rudimentary one. Although snakes are legless, they are able to move about with ease. A snake's backbone has from 200 to 400 vertebrae, depending on the species, which permits extreme flexibility. Snakes move forward by a side-to-side movement, or in a straight line by literally walking on their ribs. All snakes can swim. Snakes must swallow their food whole, and some can engulf animals three times the diameter of the snake's head. The lower jaws of snakes are loosely joined to the skull and the upper jaws are moveable. A snake grasps its prey (fish, frog, mouse) by the head and engulfs it by advancing first one side of the jaw and then the other. The snake's teeth also help it swallow. The teeth are sharp and curve toward the rear of the mouth. They hold the prey and prevent its escape. Some snakes, such as water snakes and garter snakes, eat their prey alive, while venomous snakes usually inject venom into the animal and swallow it after it is dead. Several Missouri snakes, such as the rat snakes, kingsnakes, milk snakes and bullsnakes, kill by constriction. The snake grasps the prey in its mouth and immediately wraps several tight coils around it. Thus prevented from breathing, it dies from a lack of oxygen. Then the snake swallows its prey.

    Extractions: General During Spring and summer in southern Australia we start to see snakes again. We might encounter them in the country, bush walking, whilst working or in our suburban gardens. No matter where we live in Australia, there are some snake species living with us. Each year, a small number of people will be bitten by snakes and be faced with life threatening emergencies. For most of us though, encounters with snakes will be brief and uneventful, and, depending on your outlook, will be rewarding or frightening. About 2 to 3 people die each year from snakebite throughout Australia. Up to 500 could be bitten and receive some form of treatment in our hospital system. In cases where clear envenomation is demonstrated, antivenom is used to treat bites. Nearly 7,000 of our pets, mainly dogs and cats, are bitten and are treated by veterinary practices each year. The survival rate isn’t as high with our pets mainly because they are not discovered as quickly and many of the life threatening symptoms have advanced further before treatment. Cats have a higher resistance to snake bite than dogs. Coupled with a deadly potential, many myths surround snakes and consequently they have an image problem causing them to be despised by many people. There is emerging though, a higher level of tolerance toward snakes. A growing percentage of people calling our venom laboratory are prepared to learn to live with them in close proximity. Ultimately, in most cases, this is the best option. When snakes are removed from an area, they quickly repopulate because of high breeding rates. Brown snakes have about 15 eggs in a clutch, tiger snakes can produce many young with over 30 live babies in a clutch being common. Some of the survival criteria of the babies are the availability of food and refuge sites that were sustaining the snake that was removed.

    Extractions: Back to Snake Index From Eggs or Live Birth Most snakes hatch from eggs (oviparous). Racers, bullsnakes, milk snakes and green snakes are common egg-layers. The eggs are usually white and have an oblong, leathery-like shell. Eggs are normally deposited in a location that is moist and relatively warm such as sand, sawdust piles, rotting stumps, or under rocks. Snake eggs are not incubated like bird eggs; the warmth of the substrate and rays of the sun control the incubation process. Incubation may last up to 60 days before the young are fully developed and hatch. Other snakes, such as garter snakes and rattlesnakes, have live birth of the fully developed young (ovoviviparous). The fertile eggs develop within the maternal body. Food All snakes are predators. They must locate their prey before they seize it. Snakes will eat whatever they can catch, master, and swallow. Their prey is located by their senses of vision, smell, or thermosensitivity. The food they consume depends upon the animal’s size and the environment where it lives. Rattlesnakes eat rodents such as mice, ground squirrels, and the young of prairie dogs and cottontail rabbits. They also eat other snakes, lizards, birds, and insects. The average snake will consume two to

    Extractions: Many people who are unfamiliar with snakes assume that their skin is cold and slimy. The skin of a snake is actually dry and scaly. In many instances, the skin of snakes is smooth to the touch. The scales that make up a reptile's skin consist of keratin, the same material that makes up human fingernails, mammal hair, and bird feathers, none of which are slimy. Just like the skin of humans, a snake's skin can either be warm or cold. If a snake is retrieved from a hibernaculum or caught beside a cold body of water it is likely that its skin will be cold. However, a snake caught on a warm afternoon while basking in the sun will usually feel as warm as any mammal. Unlike mammals, which are endotherms, amphibians and reptiles are ectothermic which means that their body temperature is usually dependent on the immediate surroundings. Rainbow Snake ( Farancia erytrogramma Snakes are often reported as being much longer than they actually are. The nearly universal long and narrow body design of snakes makes it easy to overestimate their length. The fact that many snakes often remain in a coiled position may also lead to false estimations of their size. In addition, overestimates of their size by humans may undoubtedly be attributed to fear. The majority of snakes in North Carolina range from 1-3 feet in length. Some active-foraging snakes such as coachwhips and ratsnakes may reach lengths of up to 7 feet. By far, the largest bodied snake in the southeastern United States is the

    Extractions: There are an estimated 160 species of snakes in South Africa alone, but fewer than 10% of these are potentially lethal to man. The venom of these extremely poisonous snakes are either cytotoxic (cell destroying), neurotoxic (nerve destroying) or haemotoxic (which affects the body's blood-clotting mechanism, causing internal bleeding). The South African Institute for Medical Research produces anti venoms against all snakebites, except for that of the Twig Snake (or Southern vine snake). Fortunately, bites from twig snakes are extremely rare.

I have chosen to present this in an informal manner, writing as if we were in the same room carrying on a conversation. Most of what is contained in this book are my personal opinions, based on many years of my experience and the shared knowledge of others. An additional goal, should you choose to be part of this program, is to provide you with the information needed to reproduce species in captivity and provide additional specimens to the public, thereby reducing the need and demand to collect large numbers of additional wild specimens.

Bridge Day 2002 Venomous Snakes West Virginia's three venomous species of snakes are the northern copperhead, the eastern rattlesnake, and the timber rattlesnake. Reports of venomous bites are rare, but usually occur while a person is trying to catch or carelessly handle a snake. All species prefer to avoid confrontation and often move away from an approaching human or remain still and allow the threat to pass by. Rattlesnakes do not always rattle when a person or animal is near. When traveling through areas thought to contain venomous snakes, you can minimize the possibility of an encounter by using common sense.

    Extractions: Updated and corrected 4 May 1999. The following is a list of books which deal with all snakes, or with a whole family (eg Colubridae). Books that deal with a group of or individual snakes are included under the appropriate sub-section (see Snake Guide on the previous pages). General reptile books are dealt with under the appropriate section. The Bartletts have written a few herpetological books for the Barrons pet series, plus a good number of articles in herp magazines and publications. As might be expected, this book takes you through the general care of snakes and also touches on breeding, and then in turn deals with Boas and Pythons and Colubrine snakes, looking at the pros and cons of individual species and their ease or difficulty in captivity. Noticeable by their absence are all venomous snakes, ie the entire Elaphe and Viperidae families, a sensible omission in an entry-level book such as this. Unlike some TFH books for beginners, Barrons books normally include a lot of species information. I drew extensively on this book for writing these notes, and even if you've already had a lot to do with reptiles it's worth the £6 or so. The only slight drawback is that Bartlett writes for mainly the US market, so UK keepers will have to consider how appropriate some snakes might be in their own situation.
