First off - congrats on the snakes! What kind are they? First corns you've had I presume? I really enjoy mine...they always be out climbing...maybe not as much as babies but moreso as they grow older and feel more comftorable.

What size cages are you building by the way?

Most any tree branches will work. The main thing you have to worry about when bringing branches inside is that they may contain mites and your snakes could get them. You have two ways of going about killing any possible mites...soak the limbs in a 5% bleach solution for at least 12 hours, or get a can of pro-vent a mite ( www.pro-products.com/miteandtemp.html ). I actually went to home depot bought a few dowels and put them in the cage so they can climb up on them. sterile and easy to put in there.

Post pics when you get them!
