Hi guys, Ive had my corn for a month now, shes about a year and a half old and I adore her (even though she bit me last week). I have now got the bug and want to get myslef a hatchling so I can watch it grow as well. I have no plans to house the snakes together or to atttempt breeding them. I was just wondering if anybody has had any problems keeping 2 snakes at home. I am just worried that one might smell the other and get stressed for example.

i am also toying with getting a 2nd snake. but am having trouble deciding on whether to get a corn or a royal. Also thinking i may rescue one. there are so many un wanted snakes out there, that need some tlc.

i have 3 in one room at the moment and hopefully getting some new editions by the end of the week they are fine, i would get some alcohol pump hand sanitizer stuff between handling also to prevent the spread of nasties.

we've got 30 snakes of various species in the bedroom with no troubles :)

we have A LOT more than 20 in the garage, and 36 in quarantine in the dining room at the moment. They seem quite happy!

@sexybear: 20 in one room. Ive had trouble finding a space in my flat just for 1 viv



All mine live in my bedroom. I have been able to carry out quarantine procedures in my spare room. I have 7 vivs (1 partitioned) and 13 tubs/RUB's in a rack, so can save space there.

Only thing I find is the older males do get a bit active this time of year as they know the females are right next to them on the rack.

Just remember if you get another snake that ideally they should be quarentined for a while to avoid pasing on any unknown nasties. Some recommend you put them in a different room (not been possible in my case).

Lots of people on the forum own multiple snakes and I don't think any have had problems :D

I have 20 in one room- no problems whatsoever. All live separately of course.

I have 4 and 2 share a partitioned viv with no problems at all. Louise has 20 odd but I don't think she has trouble either. Am sure she'll be along shortly with an answer.
