Feeding the Caramel Corn Snake

Feed your corn snake one defrosted mouse or rat a week, no larger than the widest part of the body. Once they reach maturity they can be fed every other week, and can be offered small rats, chicks, and other species that are the appropriate size. Ensure that all frozen prey items are thoroughly defrosted in a fridge overnight, then brought up to room temperature before being offered to the snake. Prey can either be offered on tongs, or left in the vivarium for the snake to find.

Housing the Caramel Corn Snake

Creating a suitable environment is critical for the well being of your snake.

A corn snake would benefit from a 120 x 60 x 60cm vivarium. Lots of hides should be provided for the snake to feel safe, as well as a moss filled hide to aid shedding, and a water bowl large enough for the snake to soak in if it feels like it. Make sure that waste is removed as soon as possible, and that the vivarium, decor, and water bowl are cleaned regularly with a reptile safe disinfectant.

Where is the Caramel Corn Snake from?

In the wild Caramel Corn Snakes are found throughout North America. Their friendly nature, unaggressive nature and generally small size, as well as their simple care plan make them a popular snake to keep as a pet.
