Emily: Corn snakes are calm

Me holding my over dramatic corn snake: Let me prove you wrong

[deathbygaming]

Parents: why you still desperate to move out?

Me: I need independence

My head: I’m getting a milk snake

as someone who’s first snake was a corn snake i definitely recommend it. I’ve had her for almost two years now i believe and shes such a cutie

Idk how comfortable I would be having a garter snake, since they’re very common where I live. Not that I think that they belong in the wild or anything like that, it’s just weird to see your pet in your backyard haha

"Not that big, they can get up to five feet"
Me, at 5'2": wow

After rescuing a garter snake from a sticky trap, I was immediately in love. I went on YouTube to look for more information on snakes, and this was the first video I saw. From there, I've fallen in love with your channel- watched hours upon hours of videos, become a Patron, bought merch, and am already planning my trip to the facility when I move to the US.
Thank you, Ed and Emily, for changing my life. 💜

That corn snake yawning was the cutest thing ever

My corn snake Spot grew from 18 inches to 6 ft in 20 years. He was in a long 90 gal tank and teased my cats. He would weave back and forth while the cats pawed the glass and then move to another side. He had them following him all around the tank for a good hour before going to his hide. He sneezed too. His entire body jumped when he did. Usually after digging through the bedding. He now lives with a herpetologist because l have severe arthritis and could no longer care for him properly. He is still alive after 23 years and healthy.

Emily: i dont recommend getting a blood red cornsnake because they have the weakest immune systems
me: *stares at the blood red corn snake i got yesterday because i heard corns snakes are great beginner snakes*
me: *panic*

When purchasing ball pythons, be careful, because balls with a 'spider' gene (the one in the video has the gene in it I think) can have severe neurological issues which causes a head wobble and corkscrewing.

Garter snakes are all too often overlooked. They are my absolute favourite snake. They are active, fun to watch, and they seem to have a bit of curiosity as they explore their environment.

He think
He slink
But most importantly,
He drink.

Big warning about corn snakes: they are master escape artists. Always make sure their tank/tub is secure or they'll find a way out. And they are excellent at hiding. I've had several corn snakes and every single one has escaped at some point.

Edit: Still the best beginner snake tho.

Can we just appreciate how adorable snakes truly are like i wish i could get one and put a cute little top hat on on it or a cowboy hat

[Zoe_kay]

So glad I found this channel. So informative! I’ve been wanting a snake for a while and this channel has taught me a lot, so it’s easier to decide what to get . Thank you 😊

“Garters are hard to find.”
*Throwback to when me and my brother would catch them in the empty lots next to our house....*
