How about this one?

Maybe a yearling? Lots of clearance sales going on now, to make way for the babies!

OH! I forgot to mention...

I have another tank that is 20inLx12inHx11inW. I think it is 10-15, I am not sure. Would this be an appropriate size for a young corn? Or would a baby need something slightly bigger? I will take a pic in a second. :)
 
Now that sounds like a better fit for a baby. I have my baby in a 10 gal. and it seems to be able to adapt to it every well, was exploring from day one, without any stress from what we could tell at all. Of course it's a little pisser when it comes to being picked up, not biting, but sure puts on a show! I know I wouldn't put her in anything bigger for about another year. Now on the other hand I have my big girl(or boy) in a 55 gal.. and even that at times seems small.........but what do I know??.....lol
 
The only trouble with the little vivs- like 10's, is you can't fit any cool stuff in them! Like especially if you want to put in a moist hide for shedding...

These are my two 10's- Zee on the left, Addy on the right. Zee might stay small enough to stay in a 10 his entire life, but Addy will need to go to a 20L. She's _always_ climbing, too.

And here's Maizey in her 20L. I'd really like to put her in my 40, if I could get the tortoises outside permanently...She spends an equal amount of time in all three hides. The back left is where the heat is. I'd like to get her a bigger crock. I can _just_ squeeze her moist hide in by lifting the grape branch and putting the moist hide next to the hollow log and then setting the grape branch back down on it. In this pic, Maize is in the center hide. I feel like this 20L is adequate, but not optimal for an adult.

You know I really have to wonder about the theory that too big of an enclosure would stress a baby.
I agree . . .

Yes, they live outside in the wild. But they spend almost all of their time hiding in small spaces.
. . . and Lefty's quote wraps up the flip side nice and neat!

Sir, you owe me a cup of coffee, because I just spit mine all over.
With or without cream and sugar?! :grin01:

Here are some more tank pictures complete with cat, dog, and small tank comparison! :p

Okay, this is just too easy, and I'm going to have to report you! Aspen is NOT the proper substrate to be using with Yorkies or Long Haired Chihuahua mixes (mix? -can't quite tell what it is from the pictures!).

I hope that cat doesn't think that is a litterbox! That could get messy.

Nah. I think he knows better. He can't fool me, I know he understand the difference between pine pellets inside a short plastic litter box and soft CareFresh at the bottom of a tank! :dancer: Heh. He just likes to sit on the top but I stopped that habit.
 
:-offtopic I LOVE that dog! I want a dog that is smaller than my cat! That is too cute!
