Thanks to alot of peoples help ive decided to put a divider in my enclosure plans for my future corn snakes.

my design is to have it be (LxWxH) 4ft x 2.5ft x 2ft.so that would divide each into 2x2.5x2 is this enough room or too much room?

Can anyone tell me the ideal space for a baby and for an adult 5' corn? also can you tell me for each where mine would stand on a scale like this: too big, a bit to big, just right, a bit small, too small. thanks

The size of your tank would definitely fit a snake that is four foot long. Add the width to the depth and it should either equal or exceed your snake's length. As for the baby, make sure it has lots of tight hiding spots in there and put the water bowl somewhere touching the side or front of the tank (so he will find it in his roaming around the perimeter of the tank) and it should be fine.

Make sure that your divider is secure. I had a divided tank, and found the two babies together about three times before I put them both into separate tanks. They can slide between very small gaps.
