Freyda the Corn Snake

🐍🍂 Meet Freyda the Corn Snake! 🍂🐍
 
Freyda came to J&R Aquatic Animal Rescue on September 5, 2025, when her previous owner was facing housing challenges. She’s about a foot long and already doing great eating frozen/thawed pinkie mice. Small, curious, and full of potential, Freyda is ready to slither into a new home that’s ready to grow with her! 💛
