I'm just wondering if anybody has used these vines for corn snakes, I bought some but they seem a bit abrasive.
Do you think they would be ok or should I not bother putting them in the Viv.......Charlie loves to climb.
Cheers

He sure looks like he is enjoying himself. I love watching the snakes whenever I have a revamp of their vivs as they spend so long exploring everything |

Cheers sparkaly ^^ What size ones did you get? Have been thinking about the vines for a while but I just kinda presumed they were for small reps! |

my vine is really rigid and kind of stands up on its own, have it hooked over the hammock so it creates a bit of a branch.

Does anyone know if the vines will support the weight of a big adult corn? |

Hopefully Charlie will like it (and i got lots of spare things ready for when I get another corn Shhhhhhhhhh................... Don't tell the other half.

I've put the vines in, what do you think ........... anything else you think he needs?
Thanks guys and girls
That looks really good how you have put them in. The only thing i thought of was maybe a fake potted fern or some greeney hooked into the vines in the middle of the viv so snakie has some cover when travelling between cool and warm ends |

And shouldnt assume that I was not aware of it either,
Back to the original query
I just bought some leaf vines (fake) and wrapped around the jungle vine, and does look good, bring colour to it as well as hiding any cable hooks youve used for the jungle vine |

May be a valid point, but he should really put it in a non sarcastic have it go way and then make stupid comments like "why waste peoples time when you are going to ignore them"
I am not ignoring it what so ever,
and I do have plenty of foilage around the vines, on the ground, which has shadowed and darkened areas, and also given "hiding spaces"
my viv is 2ft width ways and 1ft and half depth and height,
Cecil make look small, due to the angle shot and as you know when snakes curl up then can look small, but she is in fact 1ft 5ins
And this was measured with a) a program which you take a picture of the snake and a ruler, together, put it into this program, you set the measurement by placing one dot at beginning of ruler and one dot at end, typing in the length of that say 15cm
then you point dots along the centre of the snakes body in the picture and gives you the length which is quite accurate
She is also just over the length of one side, (as soon her sliding along side) and this measurment is the same as the above
I appreciate peoples advice and comments, and opinions, but I do not appreciate them put across to me in an arrogant and sarcastic manner, regardless of what their personality is!

Mike has a valid point delivered in typical Mike style, going off the picture he does look a bit small but if you are aware of this and have stuff the spaces with hides and foliage then thats all good and well. I had a hatchie (11 inches) in a 2 foot viv jammed full of foliage and he was fine but that cant be a cut and dry bit of advice, some don't fair well in big spaces.
