Cornelius came to J&R Aquatic Animal Rescue on 10/18/25 at the Exotic Pet Surrender Event in Milwaukee after their owner—who originally purchased them from an exotic pet store—was unable to keep a snake at their residence.
They’re approximately 7 years old and are reliably eating frozen/thawed mice. Cornelius has a classic, curious corn snake personality and enjoys exploring, climbing, and relaxing in secure hides.
Corn snakes are hardy, active, and make great pets for both beginners and experienced keepers when provided with proper heating, humidity, space, and enrichment.
