Corn enclosure and stuff

Hi. I had just brought home my first corn, a blizzard. It is a hatchling.
A friend of mine who's a breeder inspected it and says it seems really healthy.
Also, the feeding records that the previous owner kept looked good. It's been eating ok several times, although they were feeding live day old pinkies and I will be switching it to frozen thawed.

When I first took it home, I set up a terrarium in a Hagen faunarium, the largest one. However, he looks so small, I can see the posibility of it escaping through the ventilation holes and slits. It looks a little thicker than those holes, but I was constantly worried for the few hours it was in there, and even considered putting the box into another box!

Eventually I decided to be safe and made another box for it from a small steralite. It has a cave hide, although he seems to prefer burrowing under the paper towels I am using as substrate (will switch back to more natural looking later when he is big enough for the other enclosure.) He has a water bowl. The water bowl edges are quite high, but I put only 2 cm or so of water in there to make sure he won't drown. I wonder if he'll know to get other the rock dish walls to find water...

I wouldn't think it would drown. You could put the water dish on the out of the Viv perimeter and the snake should find it with no problem cause they seem to crawl the perimeter anyway.

Good Luck :cheers:

The dish is against the wall at a corner. Should I put more water? Will he climb over the edge of the bowl? Were talking about a snake that is about 1/15th the thickness of my pinky finger or so (though I do have thick fingers).

Some snakes like getting into water, I doubt that he would drown.

He'll climb into the bowl to find water. It sounds like everything you're doing is ok so far. Just relax now and enjoy your new snake a little!
