Would love to know how big your tanks are for your cornsnakes and how many you keep in one .And did you have a smaller tank when your corns were babies or did you have a big tank from the beginning?!Thanks for answers!!

ohh,and please,could you give me the sizes in metres or inches,not in gallons!!!! We don't count in gallons in Switzerland!!Thanks so much!!

Hiya Jacky, its not advised to house corns together as they can be cannibalistic, although some people do, including myself, but I plan on separating them very soon, a disturbing post has made me realise it is not a good idea. Most of my corns are housed separately though.

All mine are housed in 20 gallon vivariums and up, and have been housed in them since hatchlings, if you do decide to go for the larger viv, just be sure to provide plenty of hides for them, so they feel secure, corns are easy snakes to care for so not much should go wrong for the new keeper if researched properly, hope this has helped you

LOL now you got me editing my posts, 20 gallon is I think 36" x 18" x 18"

Thanks Donna,

but how long is a 20 gallon tank?I wouldn't know that!!

Lol!!Thanks again Donna!
I thought the kings and milks are canibalistic,but corns??!??
What if they grow up together? I feed them outside the tank anyway;I dio that with my sinaloan since I have her,and she is on her own!

LOL 36" long, x 18" high x 18" width

Now you were quicker,lol.I edited my last post,to write some more after the lol! LOL!!!

It doesnt matter, these snakes don't build a friendship, feeding seperately doesnt stop them being cannibalistic either, if one doesnt eat and the other does, then a few hours later the other smells mouse on the other it could eat it, thats similar to what happened in the post I read, they refused a meal then later on while changing water ,one had ate the other, and there where graphic pictures too,

Also, if one is ill or has a particular bad shed its hard to tell which one its is, there are lots of disadvantages to housing together, and only one advantage to why people do it, is to save on cage space, but its no longer an advantage if one gets ate I know I probably sound hypocritical doing it myself, but that is all going to change, with either dividers or seperate cages.

Don't get me wrong, people have housed corns together without problems, I myself have just changed my view on housing them together, its just a shame it took something as terrible as that post for me to realise it.

Hello,
I use a 20 long as well. It is 36" long, 17 " high, and 12" deep. I house a single female Snow Corn in that tank. Originally, I started out with her in a ten gallon tank. A 10 gallon tank is 20" long, 13" high, and 10" deep.

I found the smaller tank easier to monitor her in.

I start hatchlings out in plastic sterilyte boxes. Sort of a plastic shoe box. I move them up as they grow. A cornsnake will do just fine its entier life in a 29 gal long.
Corn snakes are nowhere near as prone to eating other snakes as Kings and Milks. However it has happened.
