I was going to just get a old 55 gallon for the two but i'm going to fab up a dresser, cut the drawers out and put a sliding plexie glass door. Any one breed OR own corns?
Corn Snakes?

I got one corn,would be cool to breed them though they are flooded in the market already,then again they are such good pets that its not going to be impossible to get rid of them I would think. You should be able to enter corn snakes in the search and find lots of threads on them, I dont recall any members being regular breeders but if you need or want the most info you can google corn snake forums and Im sure a handfull will come up. They are great little pets.
i dont own one but plan on going to a reptile expo next month here in texas and plan on buying at least one
Hello:
Corn Smakes (or Red Rat Snakes which is the preferred name I use) are great pets and excellent for first time breeding projects. These snakes are nice, very gentle, usually feed readily, and easy to breed. The bonus is that even the eggs are easy to hatch. Sometimes the hatchlings are a little touchy but many of them feed right away. This snake has been so popular that they have been bred for many different traits and are readily available in a wide variety of genetically different "morphs." They are a good choice for anyone. I have bred them on several occasions myself and am currently raising up a new group of Okeetee Red Rats to breed next year. If you have any questions, just post them.
Have a Great Day!!!

Hello:
I used to raise a few of them but gave them away for some other things. I am currently raising a group from a bloodline I've wanted for years but they won't be large enough to breed until next season. There are lots of good Red Rat Snakes around and breeding season is about to begin. By July you could have your pick from just about any bloodline and for very reasonable prices. There are still lots of good babies left over from last year and they are a bit larger now and established. For a first timer they would be the better bet.
Good Luck and...Have a Great Day!!!
