I was just wondering what you guys/gals thought about keeping 2 hatchling corns in a 35 us gallon tank with 3 hides a climing branch and a big water dish with a locking screen lid thanx
 
Well, it certainly sounds big enough, but I personally don't house more than one snake together.
Sounds like an ok setup
 
Even locking screen lids on aquariums are notorious for having gaps that are large enough for baby snakes to push through so you run a real risk of loosing babies from that kind of set up, especially if the branches come close to the top of the tank. While most people house their snakes individually, they can be housed together, but it is best to wait until they are well established as feeders on rodents, because baby corns can feed on each other. A 35 gallon tank is also quite large for babies, and they may feel more secure and feed better if they are kept in a smaller cage, like a rubbermaid tub.

Just some thoughts, others with more experience may offer more opinions,

Are they sexed? You don't want to house a young female with a male because if they mate, the small female can die of egg binding. Just a thought.
 
wow 35 gal tank is big for a baby corn i thought my 29 for my corn that was a littel over a foot was big. but if you put in small hides in there.
 
LoL

Both my snakes are sexed i had them checked before I purchased them and the both seem to like the room the are ALWAYS active
