Most people recommend 6 months of quarantine

Re: Corn snake husbandry
If you have hides that are large enough for the corns for thwir entire lives, you should also think about getting some small tight ones as well. They will feel more secure in something they have to wedge themselves in. I've used empty cardboard macaroni boxes etc in the past. Congrats on your new snakes!

Re: Corn snake husbandry
Rsther than buying new hides stuff the bigger ones with sphagnum moss, all three of my corns use their moss hide more than the "empty" ones even tho the empty ones are small enough to be tight fitting.
