Ok so I was in my local reptile shop today and saw a small (30 x 30 x 30) exo terra setup for sale - I asked the shop if it would be ok for a small corn (told her Lu's age and approx size) and she told me he would be fine in there. His fanvarium atm is the same length but the terra is slightly deeper and higher - I'm really tempted since it would look better athestically in my flat - but it's not worth it if its gonna put Lu off - so guys what u think? All thoughts and opinions welcome :)

Sorry about the re-post btw - just that the reply in the other thread was getting a bit lost - feel free close the other thread up :)

I think that if it isn't much bigger than the faun, then it might be a waste of money because he'll grow out of it pretty quickly.

I'd probably wait and then get a small viv when he's ready to move up.

Go for it then - you can always sell it after he's grown out of it anyway

with the glass ET's you're best off putting some 'background' around 3 sides so the snake feels less exposed
