Reptiles - October 2006

Our beardie is almost a year old and licks his rocks all the time, when we put in new sand he spends a great time on licking it. I know other animals I have had needed a salt ring or something in their cage so I was wondering if our little dragon needed more salt to his diet too??? He is health and seems to be growing well and we give him a large variety of foods. But I can't find anything telling about salt??

This morning when I went to check on the baby, it was hiding under it's hide. I lifted the hide and it was laying on it's back. I picked it up and it seemed fine. I was wondering if that is normal behavior for baby corn snakes or if that is something I should worry about

I have a 8 week old mixed rat /everglade snake that apparently got away from it's previous owner. I have been feeding live pinkies for the last 3 weeks, every 7 days. He had just shed his skin just a few days ago. I was wondering do they eat fish? I'm just looking for the best way to take care of this little creature that presented himself to my garden. Any advice out there? Thxs all.

I live in south-central Kentucky. I live somewhat in the country, with fields, and woods, no water except for ponds. I found a young snake (about 1-1.5 ft.). It was black with a grey-silver diamond pattern on its back. The belly was a somewhat grey color. It coiled up when I spotted it, and acted like it did want to strike. I have searched numerous pictures, and descriptions, and have not been able to find one that looks like it. I have looked at those native to this area, and searched for those that are not, trying to figure out what it is. If anyone has any info., please let me know.
