This setup is perfect for a single adult corn snake, although you could consider upgrading to a 48x24x24″ enclosure if you are keeping two together. Corn snakes love space and will be a more active species if you give them extra space, as well as extra things to explore such as climbing decor. Although corn snakes are described as nocturnal, they are actually known to be crepuscular (active at dawn and dusk) and new research into UV (read our UV guide for a full explanation) has shown that corn snakes can benefit from low level UVB, which is included in our gold setup. In addition to corn snakes, this setup can be used for a vast amount of colubrids such as rat snakes, milk snakes, king snakes western hognoses, house snakes and more.

If you are looking for a starter setup we also sell a 36x18x18″ Corn Snake Setup, but you may have to upgrade this later on for an adult corn snake, making this setup better value.

48x18x18″ Snake Setup – Silver – £260

The silver package removes the heat mat and replaces it with a ceramic heater and cage guard to protect your snake. Heating with a ceramic is more efficient and can maintain higher temperatures, as well as allowing for burrowing without risking the heat mat being slept on (or under!). Heating from above mimics the way they receive heat in nature, heating the air and surface rather than heating from below. It’s a very inexpensive upgrade from the bronze package so we highly recommend it.
