Hi all I'm new to the taptalk world and was wondering how I start a discussion on here
But I'm also planing on building a new viv for my corn snake and wondered what people thought is best
A wooden one with glass doors or an all glass one
Thanks in advance

Maybe a pic of your current setup with what you don't like would be helpful. What do you mean she falls out of the top?
 
The cage i have has a mesh topping to it !
So she climbs up and wedges herself between the gap where the mesh lid and the tank lip meets !

I know its too small and ive been saving to get a bigger one however its taking way too long to reach the goal amount !

Its more talk then wide [emoji17]

Ill take a pic when i go home

My hatchling vanishing stripe anery used to do that. I found that putting one of those reptile hammocks with a fake vine placed on it for shelter in her tank worked wonderfully to stop the behaviour. She spends most of her time curled up under the vines on her hammock now and never tries to climb up under the lid anymore.
 
I have a couple of suggestions - corn snakes like coverage, so providing things like toilet paper tubes can help them feel less secure and possibly spend less time looking for nooks up high. But, some corn snakes love vertical climbing, so branches or a corner hammock as LittleFrog suggested could be a great idea.

The other thing is to maybe put some more hides in, usually it is recommended to have one on the cool side and one on the warm side.

Some more hiding things on the bottom might provide some interesting stimulation for your snake and weaken her interest in hiding.

Good luck with your snake!
