    Question Is it necessary to hibernate a Corn?

    I have no plans to breed snakes and was thinking about getting a corn snake next since love a lot of their color patterns, however I know they hibernate in the wild. Is it necessary for them to hibernate in order for them to stay healthy?
    Thanks,
    Aaron

    Not at all! In fact, it seems to cause more problems for many people.

    Lots of big breeders don't even hibernate the corns their breeding because it's not worth the risk.
