Moving to their big house

I have read/heard lots about snakes not likeing large open spaces and that small snakes shouldnt be kept in big vivs.

What size would you guys suggest a corn should be before it is put into a 3ft viv?

Thanks all

i have always heard that you can keep them in the same viv that they will be in as an adult as long as they have plenty of hides and there line of sight is broken up. i could be wrong but i believe that they dont like open spaces not necessarily large vivariums. i have heard the a ten gallon is a good size for them when they are young though to answer your question.

I agree with dragunov; you can put him in the viv, you just need to make sure there are plenty of hides. I'd go with 4-6, scattered around at intervals so he/she can always feel secure while thermoregulating.
