Re: Can 2 male corns lock?

6 or more IIRC, he never specified what constitutes an "adult". On the opposite end of the spectrum some smaller snakes will never hit the length that a retic reaches in the first 6 months of life. "Adult" is a bad measure of how easy/difficult a snake will be to pop.

In a way yes and in a way no. Adults have such strong muscle control that it's very difficult and the risk of injury is higher, babies and juveniles don't have sufficient control yet. However, I suppose it's different on burm, retics and the other large pythons and boids?

That's exactly what I was getting at, broad, blanket statements generally do nobody any good.
