diurnal pet snakes

There are some species that will come out during the day to bask or chase food or whatever. These reptiles do not have a set time of the day or night when they are active though; it is just a matter of what the temperature of their environment is like. I have one corn and one Russian Rat that are super active, always want to go out, and you can see them all the time. Depends how you define "diurnal" I suppose.

so yeah, basically what eminart said I like them all and have them all and want more! Snakes are not particularly nocturnal or diurnal; they come out when they can.

This reptile can be either nocturnal or diurnal, but either way is very active.

Most species I keep hide during the day but with time most will come out to beg for food or at least poke their head out of a hide.

They almost never hide and are pretty active but also mellow when handled. =)

Because these reptiles are cold-blooded, their body temperature rises or falls depending on their environment.

Diurnality is a form of plant or animal behavior characterized by activity during daytime, with a period of sleeping or other inactivity at night.The common adjective used for daytime activity is "diurnal". So, without further ado, just keep reading to discover the best picks for new snake owners! Haha, I'm having two that sometimes are like that, but they often go hiding for month/two... and then one day they start to be more active again. it's kinda funny...my carpets like to perch and they make great display animals....but not super active at all during the day.

Uhh I think that it's mostly the matter of each snake. I was having ball python that was super curious, and was out and about for most of the day. The you can watch them day and night.

Corn or Rat Snake. Uhh I think that it's mostly the matter of each snake. And of course, on the weekends, when I have more time to handle them!

Member . Pros: Get some of both.

I think most snakes are at least partially heliothermic. And I'm having 2 colubrids that are rather "wait till night, and then we can go out of our hides".

Best Pet Snakes for Beginners. Just curious, what is in your opinion the pros and cons of diurnal or/and nocturnal species of herps? While noctural will give you more watching entertainment when you're home.

5. I guess all of your answers are what I should have expected Isn't it the norm for corns to be out and about most the day as well?

Deciding to get a pet snake can be a fun and exciting experience for any age. Smaller in size and very calm, both of these snakes make for great pets.

Because it's mostly active when you're not around to watch it. Best Pet Snakes Recommendation #1: Corn Snake Most species I keep hide during the day but with time most will come out to beg for food or at least poke their head out of a hide. Hatchling snakes up to 24” do well in a 10 gallon Critter Cage, subadults (definition: passed the juvenile stage but not yet an adult) up to 40” do well in a 20 gallon long Critter Cage, and a 40 gallon breeder Critter Cage works for snakes up to 54”.

I guess it depends on if you want to watch something out in the open a lot.
