Which is better, Wooden viv or RUB for houseing corn snakes? I have two they are pets only and will never be mated. We met a man who said its fine to keep them in RUB's, my hubby thought this was great so we could have more snakes, but im not so sure. I would really appreicate the opinions of more expirenced handlers than myself.

how old/big are they as long as the RUBS are big enough then they will be more than happy in there

Most of it is down to what you want visually. Decorated vivs are much nicer on the eye an look better in a sitting or dining room

It is purely personal preference on what you want to keep them in, a RUB or a viv is fine as long as it is the correct size.

It's down to personal choice. I prefer vivs as they look much better, and as others have said they can be nicely decorated. I feel they are safer too, and would worry that a full grown corn could push the lid off, but that's just me
