What are some good science fair ideas that involve snakes?

Question

What are some good
science fair projects that
invovle snakes? I need
something that can be done
over a period of maybe a month and a half or so...

Answer 1

Check the rules- many science fairs do not allow live animals, or have strict rules about using them.

I'd do 'snake repellants'- is there any commonly available product that keeps snakes away? Rope, moth balls, etc.

Answer 2

you could do something about the quality of mice and rats sold at pet stores to feed snakes and what difference is showed if you feed the prey some fruit or veggies for a while before feedin the snake. i did my own experiment on this and found that just taking an hour to feed the mice carrots and multi grain cheerios kept my snakes fuller for longer and kept them glossy and healthy. good luck

Answer 3

Have you ever thought of building a maze & placing a feeder mouse/rat in the maze & letting the snake find it in the dark? This demonstrates their sense of smell in locating objects without really using vision.( the bait should be a thawed rodent, not a live one)

Answer 4

i like the idea of u playing a flute or somthing and getting your snake to dance ahahahahahaha

Answer 5

try the art of adapting to evolution and studying the way they move and maneuver without limbs. you can also compare them to other animals
