hey everyone i was wondering when i get my new corn, i will have to keep the poor fella in the garage at my house. but the garage is not heated, is it still possible to keep the cool side a healthy tempurture year round? ( i have hot summers and coooold winters) or is there a tool i can use to regulate tempertures on both sides?? thanks alot. I will be building this from scratch so i can add anything that will make it possible, I may also leave 4-6 shelves in the bottem for storage and possible breeding. thanks for reading! bye!
 
Will the garage be heated? What pleasure are you going to get from handling the snake out in your unheated garage? Wouldn't it be simpler to convince your wife to allow you to keep the snake in the house? In a temperate climate, housing in the garage might work, but way up north? I guess I would not recommend even getting it.
 
thats a very valid point. it is going to take half a lifetime to convince to not be scared of snakes:p she says i should respect her fears and leave it alone :S i really miss not having a corn tho. theres gotta be a way for her to get over it. i should tell her that id get over my fear of eating mayo :p
 
The thing is, if your heating/cooling fails, the snake dies. If it is in your house, the house will hold the temp much longer and if, say, you lose your power and have to leave, you can take the snake with you. There's a much larger margin of error.

Do you have friends with snakes, or a shop you can take her to? Can you promise it won't ever escape, you won't ever tease or frighten her with it? Can you bribe her with ANYTHING??? Make a trade? Everyone has a price!
 
I had this friend in junior high school. All she ever wanted was a horse. All her parents would do is say no. It was all she ever asked for for her birthday, Christmas. She kept leaving hints like a lead rope on their dresser. She outlined everything she would do to help pay for it, her plan for care, her plan that showed that once she had it, her parents would never have one minute of trouble from it. Eventually, after a couple years, she wore them down and got her horse.

Yep, it's true you know! My husband's price was going in halfsies on a gun locker (which we've yet to buy), but now my guy lives in the office in a lovely viv. It took me a month to convince him, but he did say he was okay with it all along (he just wanted to keep me going...)
