3 corns one cage?

New member
hi, i am currently keeping my three corns all in one cage. it a 55 gallon wiht many places to hid and such. i am going to post pics of the cage and my corns soon i hope. but anyways i have read that keeping corns together can result in many problems. and so far i have had none of them expect for two of my corns mating. but thats it. all the corns are in perfect health, they all eat, shed, poop, and are non adgrssive. and i feed seperarte od corse. is this ok what i am doing?? because i have herd many diffrent opioines on the subject like it can cause stress. i just need to know if i should at least seprate the one male that trys to maye.

ty for oyu repleys and you r help.:)
 
I think a twenty inch female mating is a very big problem even though it's the only one you've had. I think you should separate them.

:eek:

Don't worry, you will have problems.
You are well on your way.
You apparently knew that was probably going to be a problem and you just let it happen.
Interesting approach to corn snake care.
Some people insist on learning the hardway. Sound like anybody we Know?
That 20 inch females days are probably numbered under your care.
Do you just not know :eek: how potentially hazardous/ life threatening the breeding of an immature 20 inch female Corn Snake can be?

Or are you just a troll trying to invoke emotional responses?
I'm smelling troll here.

Improper Husbandry is the leading cause of illness and death in Corn Snakes.
Specific care details, they do matter.
Are these your first snakes or are they replacement models? :(

Got around to reading any of these
Corn Snake 101 care sheets Yet?

There are minor variances in the advice of the Corn Snake Care Sheets linked here.
Let Common Sense dictate.

A search of this site using "keywords" will give results in many cases.
Not very forgiving to misspellings though, I must say.
WWW.GOOGLE.COM will many times offer a possible correct spelling many times if the word entered is somewhat close to the correct spelling.


You've been spanked,
now go do your homework.
;) imho.

What answer do you expect

you already know that it is illadvised to keep multiple corns in one tank - you've said you already read that - were you hoping that someone would condone it? Unlikely that you'll get that here. Odds are that you can get away with it for a while, but the longer you go, the more likely it WILL happen and when it does you'll have noone to blame but yourself.

Take the steps now to ensure a safe existence for your animals or get rid of two of them for their sake.
 
You guys are BRUTAL!

You guys are BRUTAL!
Are you trying to scare people away from this forum?
You are starting to do that to me...
I will be afraid to post any questions for fear of being critisized.
Be afraid be very afraaaaaaid.....of the senior members...

p.s. you were not this harsh on me when I first got here and asked some already asked questions....
 
kimber

i think part of the problem is that he has basically asked the same question on more than one post.....

Also, he has 38 posts since registering.....JUNE 18th!
 
EXACTLY TM

hypothetical: [I have two snakes and they love each other they always curl up together.]
this person doesnt know that they need to change their set up
OR
[I know you guys dont like to put snakes together but mine really like each other so I think its ok, what do you think]
this person KNOWS what theyre doing is wrong but are looking for one person to say its ok


KIMBER - if you post a real question and seem like you really want the answer that is right, you will NOT be critisized. I'm really sorry you feel that way but hopfully you'll see that all any of the senior mambers want is for the snakes to be taken care of the best, safest way. Please stick around, and ask anything you need to.:D

Clint boyer has posted some VERY disturbing photos of cannibalism. they may be appropriate here to prove the point
 
Kimber,

The reason many have responded in this thread as they have, is because this is a rehash of the same information from another thread wherein clumsly basically told one of the mroe experienced keepers that she was wrong and he (clumsly) knew better. This was in the context of him telling a slightly newer person to ask HIM for more information, when clumsly himself had only registered the day before and was (the day before, mind you) asking the very same questions.

Several of us tried to be polite to clumsly on the other thread, and I still want to be so. However, I understand the exasperation of some directed at such a nonsensical approach to what most of us take as a very serious subject: The care of our animals!

I hope that clarifies things for you a bit. None of the senior members with whom I am familiar would ever chastize someone simply for asking honest questions here. After all, we asked them once too, not so long ago.

;)
 
idiot...

U OBVIOUSLY KNEW THAT THERE WAS GONNA BE TROUBLE SO U DID IT ANYWAY? Ok,
1st: NEVER KEEP CORNS TOGETHER EXCEPT FOR BREEDING!
2nd: DONT BREED UNTIL PROPPER SIZE!!!
3rd: IF SNAKES SEEM HAPPY THEY MAY NOT BE!!! THEY COULD BE ILL AND VERY STRESSED WITHOUT ONE SIGN!!!
4th: LEARN EVERYTHING U NEED TO BEFORE GETTING A CORN...DONT JUST JUNP INTO IT!!!!
GAHD....:mad:
