Picture of a bunch

Don't you just love the bunch of corns pictures? I keep my snakes in pairs at the most so I placed my striped in for the picture. Seems like they don't mind an intruder at all

hey marcel, i was thinking of keeping my snake in pairs, i have a 36"x12"x15" tank (3 foot long).....do you think 2 adult corns can be housed together? i was thinking of maybe an okeetee and a caramel together.....but when u house snakes together, what should the gender be?
Male Male?
Female Female?
Male Female?

It is better to house snakes apart. I house them alone but in some cages I have a pair. When I do that I always have equal sex in that cage. So males with males and females with females. Easier for me to controle breeding.

when u keep 2 together ... are they sibling or are they stanger to each other? would you house them together only when full grown or even when younger?

thanks

(i know its best to keep them separated but so many kep them together!!! just want to know whats the best way to do it. thanks)

I don't think snakes can tell the difference between brothers and sisters and strangers. So that makes no difference. I only place snakes over 6 months of age together. Snakes that have settled in and are not nervous. It is a bad idea to house stressfull snakes together. They will stop eating.
