Will your new corn be the same age and size as the female corn you already have Fernando? There are a lot of dangers with co-habiting corns and it is something that you should not really do.
If you read this thread you will see what the dangers are and how emotional people get about it. I know it is long and a lot of it has to do with putting corns of different sexes together....but please take the time to read it before you decide to put your new corn in with your old one. http://www.thecornsnake.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1070
Just remember that in the wild corns would not live together, they would stay as far away from other corns as possible until it is time for mating....so should you make your corns live together when they wouldnt normally?

Sorry, but with other kings, no. Whereas Corns tend to have more cannibalistic tendencies when younger Kings are named Kings for a very sensible reason. At ANY given time they could decide to try to eat another snake. Regardless of breed, size and how long they've been together.
I've know someone keep Kings co-habited for years, then one day woken up to only 1 VERY fat king, which was actually the one that was slightly smaller. Kings are not always the most intelligent of snakes, the amount of times you can hear of them trying to eat their own tails is amazing.
Ahh right. I don't know much about kings i just presumed that since the OP said that kings could be co-habitted that was only with other kings.
Thanks for that though kehhlyr.
Edit: i read a bit quickly, he was asking if kings could be co habbited, my bad. |

Posted - 24/06/2010 : 18:25:42 With other kings yes, milks would probably be fine with other milks. just not with corns.
King snakes are also canibalistic, i don't know wether they would eat rat/corn snakes, i just know that in the wild they eat other snakes, mainly rattlers but i wouldn't risk it.
Idon't think that any 2 seperate snake species should be cohabbited.
Edit: have a little look at this thread http://www.thecornsnake.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=10314 it may be of some use to you. |

Posted - 24/06/2010 : 18:22:43 okay but wat about a king snake apparty they can co-habit? |
DannyBrown91 |
Posted - 24/06/2010 : 18:15:16 Nope you shouldn't really co-habit different species what so ever but i read milks are canibalistic so i wouldn't co-habit them at all. |

Posted - 24/06/2010 : 18:01:13 heya...
erm i have never had a milk snake bt i prob wouldnt recommend co-habbiting a completly diffo species, yes you can have 2 female corns together (even if its not recomended) but i dont think you can with milks n defo not with milk n a corn |
