Had 25 at one time. 17 corn snakes, the rest mostly florida kings.

When we bred them we would have 50 in the house after the eggs hatched. We had a clutch hatch when my son was at VT and the professor where he did his work study wanted a corn. We gave him a red albino which escaped from the aquarium in the building on the drillfield - can't remember which building. We just gave him another one.

Most beautiful animal in this and the next two closest solar systems.**

Mike has a nice home but I'd think he'd get a bit lonely . . .
MidloHokie • 05/12/26 10:32 PM ET
Except for a brief date, they are solitary animals.**

Here's a pretty cool story abut Mike and his team of handlers

Cool story

Sort of like several house cats we've had over the years . . .
MidloHokie • 05/13/26 07:39 AM ET
Could say the same for snakes. Easy animal to take care of.**
laphroaig • 05/13/26 10:53 AM ET
We actually have one of those now . . .
MidloHokie • 05/13/26 01:03 PM ET

Interesting mutation. Google Leucistic Texas Rat. Had one we called Lucy.

I’ve never questioned your character or mind but 25 at one time?!
Brewing_Hokie • 05/13/26 04:38 PM ET
We used to put on a demo at the men's club at church once a year. Got so
