    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I am new to the forum and have a general question to start off. My first corn was full grown when I got him I was informed by a breeder that he was severely overweight since th . He has be . Put on a diet and lost 1100 grams (beginning weight 2200) what the breeder could not tell me was a good weight for him. He is just shy of 5 feet long and I want to hear some opinions on a good weight for him he is posted as my avatar but that is a pic at 2200 grams. Any input is appreciated :D
 
Wow, 2200 is rather overweight for a cornsnake. I don't think I have ever come across one that heavy.

A healthy weight is not just one number. Depends on length and "one or two" other factors. However, weight is not as important as is the snake's overall physical condition.

Your Avatar pic is too small to clearly see its condition (and does not show length, etc. ;) ). Although it does not matter since you say it is an old photo (and overall condition is more important than length/weight).

Can you post a couple/few recent pics? Top and side.
 
Of course and thank you I will do so as soon as I get home from work I think he is still a little to heavy as he isn't as muscley as my others he is still a bit soft around the edges
