I have the possibility in having a Creamsicle Male Cornsnake, its approx 4.5 ft long, Eating well and very friendly, it has a slight kink in tail from when it was damaged when younger, but owner has stated it causes no prob and it is cheap.

As I am quite new to snakes was wondering whether you guys think I should get it.

Also I will be getting a Viv built (3ft, within next 2 weeks) but any ideas for temporary housing until its built. At the min all I have empty is a 3ft Glass Aquarium with no secure lid and a 2ft wooden Viv (which is probably too small). I do have spare heat mats, bulbs and thermostats, so heating is no prob.

Also is there anything else I should ask before I buy, as I will not see it apart from picks until its delivered.

Hi Manda

large mice or fuzzy rats 2-3 times a month, never bitten and has no Viv due to other snake, so lives in a room at the min.

I am going to get him its only £40 with delivery and he deserves a good home like mine. I cant resist.
