Hi everyone, well it's been a long time since i posted on here, all has been well with my 2 corns, my question is would i be able to put them both in a viv together? Wizard will be about a year old in Oct/nov and Epi is about 8 months, both are about the same lenght, and both eating well,and shedding well, wizard is bigger bodily wise than Epi. Both are on Fuzzies now, i know i wont be able to feed them in the same viv, but have there smaller viv's for feed time.
Thanks everyone.
Viv i have is 2ft long, with glass front doors

you can look at the cohabiting thread, then make your own decisions. personally I wouldn't be keeping young corns together but that's just me.

So pleased you decided against it!
I know some people keep them together without any problems at all but I wouldn't take the risk. I'd never forgive myself it anything nasty happened.

Just been looking on Ebay for another viv, think the older of the 2 needs something a bit bigger, so will just invest in another, not going to put either of them at risk, i have the room for another so not going to make a difference.

Sometimes investing in the wood to build is another option.
I'm in the process of building a triple 36x16x16 stack. So far it's cost me about 38 quid for this bits to build. Shant be long before it's complete.
Probably wont be as tidy as some of the other stacks I've seen, but it'll function as needed.

Good to see you back Donna and I am so glad that Wizard and Epi are doing so well . I just want to say thank you for listening to the advice given and taking it....you would be amazed at the amount of people who dont . I am so pleased you have decided to put them into separate vivs....even though it does entail that extra cost, it is worth every penny .

If, as Kehhlyr has suggested and you are any good at DIY, you want to try your hand at building a viv for Wizard then these links may give you some ideas:

Hope that is of some help (or, if you are like me and totally useless at DIY , you can just ignore it!)
