Morning All,

I have a 3 year old femail corn snake (Butters)in a 3ft tank and i am wondering, if i get another baby, can she be introduced in with Butters (when she is big enough)?

Regards

Olivia

some members do cohabit snakes. And it works for them. They are fully aware of the dangers of cohabiting and have read up alot on all of the threads etc about doing so. There are some members who think it works for them... but then it goes wrong. I would suggest you read up on them too before making your decision.

As said, I wouldn't risk it. You will be far better getting a seperate setup. Not only will it eliminate any dangers that come with cohabiting, it might give you an excuse to just buy a viv stack.

Quick let's change the subject before we have ANOTHER cohabiting debate

What morph are you thinking of getting?

I'd say keep seperate myself. As said above that gives you the excuse to get a viv stack and get more too.
