I am the owner of The Corn Snake Pit. It began when I bought my son a corn snake in 2000 for his sixth birthday. I started breeding corn snakes in 2003 and other rat snakes in 2006. However, my interest in snakes and other reptiles and amphibians goes back to the early age of 11, when I was a Boy Scout and joined the E. Ross Allen's Reptile Club.
I am now a member of the following organizations:
American Cornsnake Registry

Hey there. I didn't realize that you were in Chattanooga until you sent me the invite to join the group. It's cool to have fellow herpers so close. Give me a shout if you need anything. What do you think of my new SNOW Ball? I'm so thrilled to hit those odds.
