I have two 1 month and half corns and they are housed together, can that be a problem or isit ok to let them grow together?
 
that can deffinatly be a problem. most people here do not agree with cohabing as it stresses the snakes out. I would suggest splitting them as soon as possible they will be the happier for it.
 
It is not recommended to house more then one snake per enclosure.

Co-Habbing Poll

Pros and Cons Co-Habbing Cornsnakes:

Pros
- You don't have to spend the extra money for the additional caging and supplies you will need

Cons
- Cannibalism
- Aggression
- Stress (which can result in not eating)
- Spread of disease
- Premature breeding (which can result in the death of an underweight female)
- If a problem arises (regurge, unusual bowel movement, etc), you will not know which snake is having the problem
 
If you can afford to buy two corns, you can afford to buy two cages. It's so cheap to house snakes seperately, there's really no reason to house them together.
