Heys,

Just came on to ask a few questions before actually getting my Corn snake.

I am just wondering... how thick to Corn snakes get to?

I really want to have one but I am wondering about housing it when it gets bigger..

The one I want I have seen and its teeny at the moment!

Thanks in advance. x

Its about as thick as a 50p coin, maybe a tiny bit bigger. And a 3 or 4 foot viv is fine for a corn.

Usually its length and width = corn length so if you had a viv/tank that was 2ft long and 1ft wide it would happily hold a 3ft snake :)

Corns can grow anywhere between 3-5ft though so the bigger the better ^^

heya and welcome
most adults will easily get to the 4ft mark so a 3ft viv is a minimum requirement for an adult corn. when they're small the appreciate a small space though or they can get stressy.
