Hey guys! So I was just wondering what the minimum viv size was for an adult corn, because I want to keep more snakes but my bedroom's not that big. I know some breeders keep them in tiny vivs, but I don't want to go that small. My mum's having a go at me and saying I'm cruel to keep them in cages at all, and it's kind of getting on my nerves because I don't really think it's 'cruel.' So what size do you guys keep them in, and what's the minimum space for them???
My dad's getting kind of obsessed with snakes too so he's backing me up on this, even though he used to be scared of them. Hopefully I'm getting 2 adult corns at Christmas, but if my mum keeps on then that might not happen
Thanks in advance for any answers

I keep 4 of mine in 48 x 15" and another one in a 36" x 15". My RUB that I keep them in is a tad smaller at like 28-30" x 18". For viv size, 3ft is kinda considered the min as any smaller and you might as well use a RUB.



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3

Well if 50/64 ltr RUBS can be used then I guess any viv that matches the size of those RUBS can be used.
