How To Care For Pet Corn Snakes (Pantherophis guttata)


If it’s your first time owning a reptile then you may want to consider getting a corn snake. They’re known for their mild temperament making them suitable for newbie reptile owners. 

Corn snakes are known to live for up to 23 years in captivity given the proper care and nutrition. You can comfortably house a 2-feet corn snake inside a 15-gallon tank. Make sure the build is strong enough and can resist your snake’s attempts to escape. Corn snakes, like other reptiles, require external thermoregulation that’s why it’s important to create temperature gradients inside his habitat. Create a spot where they can bask in the sun to stay warm, preferably around 85-90 degrees, and also a cooler area of about 75 degrees to help them cool down. Should you encounter any sudden changes in your pet’s behavior or health, consider having him checked at your animal hospital Greater Cincinnati.
