Today i went and seen the ghost i was planning to get when i seened it i realized it was just a baby not more than a few months old and well i have a regular 10 gallon tank with an UTH and my albino corn who is less than a year old is currently living in it i know corns can be kept with other corn but because of the size difference i was wondering if it would be okay to keep them both together. I dont plan on keeping them in that tank for long im already planning on building one myself. Any help would be grateful thanks
 
oh yeah i also wanted to know if i should add some more hides currently i have one of the cold side and one on the warm side should i add another for eachside?
 
O.K. This subject has been beaten to death. There are pros and cons to both sides. Most people suggest not putting them together. 1. Disease transmission 2. Stress on one or both snakes (this is especially a factor with your new one) 3. Cannabilism (rare but possible)
In your case, I would really not do it because you've got a new, already stressed snake coming into a new environment. You really need to quarantine your new animal to make sure it's healthy before exposing the rest of your collection anyway. Corns do not hang out together in the wild unless it's breeding time, so I don't think it would be a good idea at all. You put both of your snakes at risk for stress related illness, regurge, or spreading an existing disease to the other. For more comments on housing together, use the search function and put in housing together. Especially read Kathy Love's comments. They are enlightening and full of good advice.
