Sooooooo i need some ideas!!!

[CULEBRA85]

I know this is a cornsnake forum...buuuuuttt....i need ideas....i have an extra 10g tank that in not using and for now im done with my corn collection until i can buy another rack.....soooo i want ideas of any small snakes that i can fit a 1.1 pair in the 10g tank and not have to get a bigger tank as they grow...meaning they need to be able to cohabit and not grow too big....Sooo any ideas?

Maybe a Whip Snake? There are also quite small Rosy Boas.

kenyan sand boas too, maybe 3 or 4 in a 10g, they never move

I would say house snakes. I know a guy!

I don't think I'd cohab...but maybe a male Kenyan sand boa, they typically stay pretty small. A female, on the other hand, might end up getting a wee too big for a 10 gallon

You can't cohab anything in a 10 gallon tank. You should not cohab anything at all. But since you obviously don't want to hear that...just no that no pair of snakes should be kept in such a small cage. Ringnecks maybe...but the cohabbing is still wrong.
Good thing you said no to a house snake...the males stay small...but we had a female housesnake who was over 4 feet long!

Perhaps a pair of real small geckos, like pictus or morning!

I don't cohad any of my snakes, i was only asking if there was any out there that i could. I am well aware of the problems cohabitation can brings, i dont think at any point i said i didnt wanna hear it, i just wanted to know if there was any snakes that wouldn't have problems. So anyways.... i decided to just get a 1.0 rosy boa at repticon this year for my 10g. thanx to all for ur advise...

Look for a male rosy boa- they stay MUCH smaller than the females. You could also consider a male tri-color hognose. Mine is three or four years old and around 200 grams.

Yes I am! Didn't you see the thread in Gen Chit Chat? I don't think we've nailed down a day yet. I can go either day, although I prefer Saturday. A bunch of regulars are wimping out, though...

Not true! If you find some young Rosys you can split your 10 gallon tank.
Go to Lowe's and ask them to cut a scrap piece of plexi to 9 5/8" X 11 1/2". $1
Pick up a tube of clear silicone. $3
Find the middle of your tank and silicone the plexi in. Let it dry overnight and you have a split 10 gallon tank. Each side is approx. the same floor area of a 6qt tub. You can keep a baby rosy in each side for quite a while.

No problem...these two ended up being two females, and since the breeder didn't have any males left, I brought them back to him for a single Albino Whitewater Female...can't wait to get her a boyfriend! I simply pulled out the divider since I only have the one Rosy for now.
If you do that little mod, make sure you measure...I am 99% sure those are the correct measurements for the divider though.

Search for "Pam Albino Rosy" and find my thread on my new one...she may spark your interest a little more
