Right I'm getting a corn this weekend and getting my setup Thursday!
What would be best to get a large faunarium (48cm long) or to get a 2 ft viv?
Personally I'm thinking the faun as its cheaper then save up for a 3ft for when he/she grows?
The corns are late '12 hatchlings told early dec and approx 9-10" in length?
Thank you
Jordan

With vivs, I'd be always worrying about a tiny baby squeezing through the gap in the doors! Dont know how often that happens, but still

They do just fine in fauns when they are little, so I'd say get that and save the money for a 3ft viv in the future

That's what I'm thinking they're so wriggly haha they may escape, so with a faun I know all corners and lids clip into place!

Just ordered my faun, mat, stat, 2x caves, water bowl, a snake hide and some moss, aspen, tongs, fake plants and a log, 2 x digital thermometers, water conditioner and 10 pinkies

Would you recommend anything else or does that seem ok?
Thanks
