I've had this cornsnake since August now, and he doesn't seem to be doing okay. I took him in from an owner who didn't care for him properly/didn't want him any longer. Right now he's in a 20 gal, had aspen bedding but just switched to paper towels, and temps are about 85-90 on the hot side, and 75-80 on the cool side. He's about 3'6", not sure on age.
He's always been feisty, not the normal calm cornsnake, but since the middle of January he has been worse. Nipping out of no where, twitching, constantly on the move, doesn't want to be touched or held. He had passed his mouse from last sunday fine, had two large poos, but then threw something up on thursday... Just this pink blob. He has refused food since then. This snake has never refused a meal since I've had him.
He has always moved weird, and doesn't support himself when you hold him. He is just kinda limp, and won't wrap around you, he's always been like that since I have owned him. And now, if you go to pet him, or pick him up, he thrashes his body, and pushes you off of him. I am making a vet appointment to get him in as soon as possible but I wanted to see what your opinions on this is... It has me extremely worried, and I have no idea what his problem is.
