How does it manage to flatten so much? How wide is the gap between the 2 panes of glass?

but those pics he has got thru the gap in the glass which is small enough but is blocked with folded card aswell so at a guess he is gettin thru 2-3mm gap!!

its crazy... the smaller snake never even goes near the glass

Did you know that their heads can flatten? My OH loves demonstrating this (which is why I keep him away from my snakes as much as possible ). Also their ribs spread out and flatten to allow the snake to slip through the smallest gap.

Try the paper binder instead of the cardboard, with my viv it virtually closes the gap. Also the plastic is harder than the cardboard, so wont flatten therefore allowing a gap for Zebedee to escape through.

Have just loaded some pics of both vivs onto photobucket - so will try and post them on here in the next few days.

It does mean you have a bright red (or whatever colour) line down the middle of the viv, but it looks better than lots of cardboard, is safer, slides easily and must be softer on their noses when they are rubbing them against the glass edge trying to escape.

There is an extensive discussion regarding corn snakes sharing a vivarium on this forum. To suggest you should 'definately' partition the vivarium or house the corns in seperate vivs is only one side of the arguement.

Many keepers house corns together with no issues, and I have to say that I did quite some research on the subject and the overwhelming attitude of experienced corn snake keepers and breeders was that you could happily house a colony in one tank.

Many here would disagree, and there is much youtube footage to suggest Corn's can be aggressive or even canabalistic.

If yours are happy in the same tank, and seem comfortable with the arrangement don't take a knee jerk reaction to change, do your own research.
