i let my corn have a roam around on the floor, on my bed, on the sofa etc for aslong as i would usually handle her for .. so about 15 - 20mins usually
care must be taken when you are letting them roam around though, one eye must always be on them to make sure they dont hurt themselves, go into a hole you cannot get them out of etc |

Nope..... too many places for even an adult corn to get lost in. They'd be under the floorboards, inside/behind the fire, behind the kitchen cupboards and all over the place. |

Your'e not wrong Chrissy! and your advice isn't wrong or bad!
the time is fine, 15-20 mins so they dont get stressed. I'm still building bridges trust wise with the boys so i don't do it. YET. Waiting till Blitz trusts me better, and Blaze is big and lazy.
it's exercise afterall, left supervised it'll be fine. Letting them go up and downstairs (again watch them like a HAWK!) is good if they'll a lil podgy. |

i made the mistake of letting Tartan out of my sight for 2 seconds...
I spent an hour taking apart an office chair for it |

i let mine have a small roam across the bed..with the king its not too hard to keep an eye on him - he usually winds up round my neck anyway lol but with the corns i make sure my hands are close to them and theres nothing they can hide under nearby they wont be allowed to roam the floor for a long time yet though! |

Am sure it is dependant on age and personality of snake. Kellog is an adult and I let him roam on the floor, sofa, up and down the stairs....but I ALWAYS have a hand resting on him and know all the danger spots...like under the sofa and behind the bookcase, so as soon as he heads in that direction I move him away - although sometimes he can be very stubborn and even if I move him to other end of room he finds his way back straight away!! So beware!!
