Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Rescue Mission, help please
An acquaintanceof mine recently gave me his cornsnake citing the reason that he could no longer properly care for her. She is just under a year old and i feel that she is very small for her age, i attached a pic just after feeding her an extremely small pinky.
Should I increase the frequency of feedings to 2 per week or perhaps every time she defecates?
Also, what morph is she?
thanks

I would try and get her to eat every 4 days until she has put on some size. She looks to be a very attractive anerythristic motley. Too dark to be a ghost. Make sure the poor girl/boy has plenty of fresh water. Good Luck!

Pretty little anery motley girl, she is.
I agree, I'd feed her an appropriate sized meal every 4-5 days.

I'd be offering her food every four days, and offering a second small pinkie if she took the first.
Anery or Anery Motley. Cute little thing. Good luck with her, and kudos for giving her a better home.

That is not uncommon with cornsnakes, especially hatchlings. I do not handle cornsnakes frequently under 100 grams in weight, I prefer not to stress them out. However, once she is settled in and eating on a schedule for you, their is no reason why you can not get her out for 10-15 minutes a day for handling.
