Return to Rescue Animals
Under Quarantine…
Sumi is currently being tested for a respiratory infection.
Sumi is a beautiful, older corn snake believed to be male and around 15 years old. He was surrendered alongside Hope, after their previous keeper got them from someone who was not properly caring for them. They could not get them to eat so have surrendered them.
They were previously kept in a vivarium (of unknown size) together with another snake, no heat and were not fed for the month they were there. They were then separated by the previous keeper. Sumi was moved to a 3ft on his own with overhead heat and has refused food for the last month as well.
Sumi has been eating well with us and has shown no signs of any health issues. He is very friendly to handle and would make a great first reptile.
A sweet gentleman in need of some love.
Care Requirements:
Sumi will need a 4ft vivarium as a minimum, to allow space to exercise and move around. A caged, overhead heat source should be fitted with a suitable thermostat to maintain a warm-side temperature of 32C. The cool side should sit below 23C. A low-level UV bulb should be provided – 5-7% ideally. Sumi should be fed a medium/large mouse every 2 weeks.
