I love the various shades of pink corn snakes available. The "pink complex" of genes in corns fascinates me, and I am constantly amazed by how many different shades and lines the pink snows in particular come in. Over the last four years I've carefully selected a few pink corns for myself...

As a former RVT who stays in touch with the veterinary community, I get a lot of fosters. I've had a dreadful year for kittens. Usually bottle babies are one of the highlights of the spring/summer for me. This year I got a litter of VERY preemie kittens who slowly died off one by one over...

I might be paranoid, but I run a fecal on every new animal that comes in, and once a year I pick an animal in my collection to run another fecal on. Last year the snake I randomly picked came back with pinworms, so I had everyone else checked too. He was the only one who had them. I have no...
