corn snakes- yay or nay?

Question
Can corn snakes (1m, 1f) stay in the same viv as eachother after living on their own for their lives? I don't mind about the breeding.

Answer
Hi Melissa,

Cohabitating snakes is not advised for a number of reasons. This site neatly outlines the reasons why.

I have never heard of adult corn snakes attempting to cannibalize each other although it happens regularly with hatchling corns.

I have known hobby keepers who have kept adult corns together for years with seemingly no problems. Whether they were just lucky, I don't know.
