You don't need 2 hides! 1 is enough.

I agree, for my Ghost all I have is one hide and that's all I had since day 1 when I got him.. as for my new little guy I ahve 2 and since he's so small and he's in a 20 gallon long I'm trying to keep it fairly busy and cluttered

I have two hides for my lemonblast. He uses both daily, even though he is kept in a tub that is only half opaque (the store was out of all-clear tubs that day, so he got a clear and fushia tub. Lucky him right? Lol) I am sure he would be stressed with out both hides. He's kind of a grumpy dude to begin with.

The corns get one big hide over the hot spot, but they only use it after eating.

Unless you're buying expensive hides, offering two won't hurt the snake or your budget. I wouldn't start out with only one for ANY reptile if I could avoid it. These are animals that like their privacy.

Everyone gets a hide, and if they choose not to use it, they don't have to have it.
