Size: Adult corns range from 3’ to 5’ in length. Hatchling cornsnakes are approximately 7”.
Feeding: Cornsnakes eat rodents. Many will take frozen thawed rodents, but some live prey items. Be sure to feed an appropriate size rodent.
Temperature & Humidity: Provide a basking area of about 85-90’F. An ambient temperature of 80’F is fine and a nighttime low of 70-75’F is suitable.
Captive Care: Cornsnakes will need an appropriate size aquarium with a secure locking lid. You can decorate using many commercially available snake products. Provide a hide box and fresh clean water. A water bowl large enough for the snake to soak is recommended. Cornsnakes of all ages make great pets. They are relatively easy to care for and docile by nature.
