Re: Introduction
Corns are a great choice for a "first snake", though a 55 gallon tank is larger than you need. A 20-30 gallon tank is large enough for an adult, small plastic tub would be fine for a baby for months.
Make sure to ask the seller how many times they've been fed. Sometimes new hatchlings are sold, much better to get one that's established.
If you're looking for something less common like the reverse Okeetee I'd advise getting to the show/s early. Even if you don't find that particular morph there will be hundreds (or more) of baby corns to choose from. Usually some adults available as well, though not nearly as many or as much variety to choose from. On the other hand, they're easier to keep contained (not small enough to squeeze out a small gap in the cover) and easier to find again than a wee baby if they do escape custody.
Good idea to stock up on frozen feeders while you're there too.
