Hi all,

Quick question for you all - my son has a corn snake that is about a year old. He is currently in a 2 foot viv (the snake that is ) that opens at the top (monkfield I think). Anyway he's fine in there for now, obviously I know he will need a bigger viv as he grows, which is fine.

My question is that my son is now asking for a Royal Python too. Assuming I agree to the new addition (he's planning on asking Father Christmas as he came through on the corn snake last Christmas ) I have been looking for a double viv. Ideally I'd like one that has a small cupboard at the bottom and then 2 3foot vivs on top of each other. I'm really struggling to find anything?? Again 'ideally' I'd like them to be divide them so that they could start smaller than 3 foot and then be increased as and when needed (if that makes sense?)

Am is asking too much or am I just being dim and not looking in the right place?

I think you'd be better off finding two 3 foot vivs and a suitable sized cupboard and just stacking them on top of each other It would probably work out cheaper overall.

I put my corns up from fauns to 3 ft vivs and they were fine. Just make sure there's lots of cover available so that they won't feel too exposed

You could get something like this:

Then you could put a couple vivs on top

Not sure about the divide though, although sure some people have found ways to do this.

Not sure about royals, but I put my corn from a faun to a 4 footer with plenty of hides and coverage, and she's doing great!

Thanks both. I did see the ones on swell and they are definitely best option I could find, just wondered if there were other options I was missing.
