I honestly think it depends on each snake. When I first got Brego, he was living with two others. They got along just fine and I actually felt really bad about separating him with this one that he seemed particularly familiar with. Some snakes might do better cohabiting than others. It's really up to each owner to determine whether or not their snake is up for it or not. But it definitely can be done with some snakes

Cohabbing opposite sex juveniles who will eventually mature is completely irresponsible, unless you have some kind of death wish for your female. The youngest female I've seen lay was 70g and could not lay without assistance. It's a wonder she survived.

Snakes do not have the part of the brain that mammals have that causes feelings of affection. They literally can't be fond of you or each other.

I am going to get them probed so I will know for sure and if they are a boy and girl
I will separate them
I love my snakes I would never put them in danger

May be they don't have that kind of brain but I know what I saw
There are probably lots of reasons why George was there waiting for him/ her
But it's nice to think he/she was waiting
I don't think of them like a dog or a cat
They are snake and I do treat them as snakes
I love them both

I believe that cohabbing is so that a human can have more than one corn snake without the space and expense of a separate enclosure and is of no benefit to the snakes involved. If I couldn't maintain separate quarters I wouldn't have more than one snake. I can't tell anyone else what to do, but I'll never do it.

Two males will also fight. And you can't guarantee you have two females until they *both* lay eggs. Many a 'pair' of females has actually turned out to be a male/female pair.

Separate your snakes. It's best for *them* and that is what should be most important to *you*.
