Move to viv?

[Miranda]

Oscar (my corn snake) is currently in a hatchling tub that measure length 46cm ,width 30cm, and height 17cm, how long/old should he be before i move him into a 3ft viv?

How old is your snake?

The only reason you may not wnat to put him/her in a larger cage is becasue he might: a) escape if there are largish openings (like ventilation) b) be REALLY difficult to find if he/she is young. I cant see any other problems with it, the bigger the viv the better in my opinion!

I made the mistake of moving my first corn to a 3ft viv to soon and she turned into a demon! lol

I would personally tub him for a while longer you havent had him that long have you??

I have recently moved Poppy to his 2ftx2ft viv but untill then he was tubbed

Hes an 06 So he wasnt a verysmall hathcling when i got him (march 07) Hes always been good tempered and alwawys a strike feeder, The thing is i have heard of snakes slipping their heads inbetween teh slidnig pannels so i think ill wait longer please tell me when you mvoed up how big tehy were etc. what problems you had etc.

I have just moved my corn into a 3foot viv, I have just put some pictures in the pic forum. He is 10 months old and about 75cm long (2.5 feet), I have loads of stuff in the viv to make lots of hiding places and so far he has spent most of the time up in branches.

In his viv there will be fake plants, nautral looking hides. climbing logs its like wood chipping straw cutting bedding (no fumes etc.) So it will beb great ive been saving up since i got him fro hhis viv andi am coming up to £130 which would be enough for viv and postage(where im getting it from) Then i think dad will contribute to accessories etc.

Ive had my corn in a 3ft since the day i got him (as a youngster) and had no problems what so ever.
corns may be clever but there not magicians, make sure theres no gaps and your be fine
