Sage got out of her cage tonight. Thank the Goddess Justin saw her making a break for it at the front door, but anyway I was looking at new cages, ones better than my set up now. Can anyone tell me what deminsions a cage/housing should be for an adult corn. I'm looking at the Vision line of Enclousures. Thanks a ton.

Time for a New Better Enclosure

What's one more???
I've heard that an adult corn needs an enclosure equivalent to a 20 gal. long. I personally don't necessarily go with those dimensions, however. I have shorter (height) enclosures with more floor room. Since corns are terrestrial, I choose to not give them climbing room, but offer more "floor" space and hides to choose from. If I was to switch my corns to glass aquariums, then I would probably get 40 gal breeding tanks because they have a lot of floor space.

Build your own!
This thread describes the process in length. It is definitely cheaper to build than buy.

It requires very little skill, and minimal tools.

I use vision cages
but not for corns. They are very high quality, provide excellent viewing, are easy to clean, lightweight, well-ventilated, I can't think of a bad thing to say about them. Other than the fact that they are VERY expensive.
I didn't check the thread CAV mentioned, but if it doesn't mention rubbermaids with a weighted lid (which I still use in a pinch with w/c), they are less than 6 bucks.

Rubbermaids/Sterilite tubs are great (especially price-wise to broke students like me)
An alternative to weighting them is using binder clips which I find work very well (3 on each side).
The only bad-ish thing i can think of is that they don't look very "natural," which I know some people prefer.
