Hi again,

I know there are many opinions on this but I will appreciate hearing any experiences...

I have 2 hatchling Great Plains Rat snakes (3 months old, male and female). I just got a baby corn snake (weeks old I think) not sure of sex yet.

I'd like to keep them together when the corn gets bigger.
Is it possible?

thanks very much for any help.

IMHO, I wouldn't. Snakes are generally solitary animals and won't get along with other snakes. Even if there is no open aggression between them, there is tension, competition for hiding places, differing active hours and similar things which will lead to stress and health problems for the snakes later on.
