QUESTION: have you got any advise or tips for keeping corn snakes

Answer
Corn snakes are one of the easiest snakes to take care of. Just fill the bottom of the tank with shredded aspen or newspaper, make sure that they have a water bowl, a hiding place, and a source of heat on one end of the tank (around 84 degrees) and feed them once a week. That's about it. You can also buy a book called "The Corn Snake Manual" that will give you even more info.
