I have a ten gallon tank for my snake and i was wondering how often should i take everything out bedding and all and clean it out
 
Is the ten gallon tank for one of the two listed in your signature? If so, then you may want to consider a larger tank soon! As for cleaning it, you should spot clean it every day. I typically deep clean my enclosures every week or two. Sometimes it depends on feeding, though. If one of my snakes doesn't feed for a couple of weeks, then I might be able to go a little longer...no eating = no defacating! The water should be changed (and the bowl cleaned) at least every other day, in my opinion.
 
The <b>absolute minimum</b> for an adult cornsnake is a twenty gallon long. It won't be long before you will need to change. You may have a little longer in the ten gallon tanks, but not <i>MUCH</i> longer.
 
ok thanks

thanks alot for the input, I guess i am going to have to get new tanks. I never thought that i would have to get them bigger tanks tell they got a little thicker
