I want to buy a baby sunglow corn snake (hatched in september) and i have no idea how big its going to be or what size viv it will need! I have a 2ft viv and i also have a 3ft viv spare, which one would be best? how big will this snake be?
Best to start it off in a smaller tank than those really baby corns get a bit stressed in all that space (Faunariums are great £4.99 in wilkos). Corn snakes can grow to about 6ft long and can live for up to 20 years. Have a look at Lewys lo vely care sheet for mor info.

hi there my corn is sept hatch and he is about 2ft long, went to local reptile shop this week and saw some iddy biddy babies about 10inches, thought they very young but turned out to be sept hatched as well and are still on 1 pinky. I moved George from 2-3 pinkies a few weeks to fuzzies which he has no problems with.
in answer to your question i reckon your new corn will between 1ft-2ft. I have George in a 9L RUB which he seems quite happy in.
in a shop the snakes are kept on maintenance diets as its to impracticle to do multiple feeds etc and cater for each indivdual snakewhen they have that many to look after.
so in answer to your question they wont grow as fast as snakes that are kept as pets.
