We try to be polite.

Trashing people is frowned upon.

Not typically, but it does happen. Why take the risk?



Give them their own enclosure, and they will eat and grow happily. Co-habitation can be stressful, and you want your snakes to be happy right?

How do you regulate temperatures on both sides?

Corn snakes do not require a heat source if you keep your house average above 65. Seeing as she is in CA I wouldn't worry about it.

I personally think it is important to provide all reptiles with a chance to thermoregulate, i give my corns basking areas from 88 to 92 and cool ends around the 72 to 75 mark, so that they can move to choose their own preferred temperatures.

This seems to be a UK thing, lots of the americans on here seem to have no heat source for their corns
