    Tank Sizing

    I have a normal corn snake that is about 3"-3.5" long. Would he be happy in a 20 gal long tank? Or is that just not big enough? Thanks

    I keep my 4+ foot long adult Snow in a 20 gallon long and he is very content and happy. I haven't had any trouble with him at all.

    Once they hit 4 or 5 feet I really do upgrade the size of the cage. They do fine in smaller cages, but I find corns make more use of their cage than snakes like ball pythons.
