Hi guys and girls just a quick question, I have a 2' x 1' viv and Fred is aprox 3.5' long, not sure if he's fully grown yet but I was just wondering if it will be big enough for him. I know they don't like wide open spaces but don't want him to be cramped up, would it be worth investing in a larger one, thanks in advance.

Most corns will average about 4ft.
At the risk of a guess, I'd say something along the line of 36x18x18 inches. That should last him up until about 4.5-5ft and providing he doesn't get much bigger than that, then that should do fine for life.
I have adult snakes in 36x16x16 vivs it's good enough for them.

ok thanks what size would you reccomend for him, I was thinking of getting one that would suit him through adulthood.

The general rule is that once the snakes length is more than the length plus the width of it's viv then it's time for larger accommodation. So at 3.5' long, I would say that your snake could do with being moved to a bigger viv.
