Chris,



My post was for those who do say that it is OK to house corns together. I find it amazing that there are those who will advise new people to house their corns together when they are asking from an early perspective...merely starting out, but once one of these inexperienced keepers has a problem, which has obviously been made worse by the fact of cohabitation, those who so strongly advocated for the practice before are then strangely silent on the subject. It's somewhat hypocritical, in my view.



I think there are situations in which it is entirely acceptable to house corns together. I also believe that there really are not very many hard and set rules in corn husbandry (if any at all). However, for a beginning corn enthusiast, the difficulties that arise from time to time are hard enough to recognize and handle, and cohabitation of one's snakes only makes that truism even more concrete.



I just get really frustrated with those irresponsible few who come on here and say stuff like "Oh I've housed mine together for years and never had a problem...keep them together, they LIKE it!" It's just asking for problems in someone else's collection, and that level of disregard for others is something I find personally unacceptable.
