I’m looking at every corn snake video because I might be getting one and this is the most helpful one for the set up

Thanks Charlotte, I am glad you found our video helpful. I hope you manage to get one : )
When u get it make some vids🙃
Omg Same

Shoutout to the guys at Ultimate Exotics for helping me with my entire setup. They shipped across the country to me over night. Everyone working there has been super helpful. Thank you for the guidance on my baby hoggy, you have made a fan of me for life !
Hi there can u send me there details I want to find out bi them about a set up for me
Can you do a video showing how to connect that thermostat up with a heating pad? I have never seen anything like that
That’s a good idea, thank you, we will look into doing that video😊👍🏻
you just plug the heat mat into the socket on the thermostat and plug the thermostat into the wall. Set the thermostat to the temperature you want and put the heat probe where you want that temperature.
I would love to by products from you for my corn snake but the link is apparel only. Do you have products available as seen in this video and do you ship to the US?
@@Geoffrey454 hi there most thermostats we have in south Africa we can't just plug them in what we have to do is we use a plug than we connect 2 of the cables form the temperature controller to the plug then we use a block connector than we connecte the other 2 cables to the block connector than we use the 2 cables from the heat pad and connect it to the block connector
Getting my first corn snake this weekend. Thank you ever so much for this video. Really helpful, given me the confidence I need to give my snake a happy, healthy and enjoyable life
Easiest sub ever! This channel rocks 😊
Update: she’s doing great! Had a full shed no issues, eating and pooping. Admire her daily and love her!
🥰
@@Forevercelticcan we get an update!
This guy really tells you the info you need for a cornsnake. Thanks man.
One thing I found interesting is that you didn’t include a hide on both sides of the setup? Personally if I was making that setup I’d add a hide on the cool side to they can thermoregulate and feel safe.
EdenThePokèGal .C he says it quickly in the beginning there’s a hide in the water bowl
There are two hides in the enclosure.
The bowl is also designed to be a hide
I love the videos guys keep it up i just bought a lovely dumeril boa from you she is absolutely gorgeous i would recomend you to anyone who wants to get into snakes and you guys have been very helpfull ive phoned with questions and you always get back to me great customer service
i have a tessera snow hypo corn snake and I love it. I have it for a month and a half now and it has grown a lot.
Its been about 20 years since i last had corn snakes so im watching every video i can find to see whats new information and new equipment before i get a new baby corn😊
Love the enclosure
Very thorough and
helpful. Thank you!
Im getting a blizzard corn snake in a few days, sooo excited rn, thanks for your instruction 😻
I’m getting a corn snake so this video really helped because I was deciding on what to do with the enclosure
That is great to hear, I am glad you found the video helpful : ) Thank you for watching!
Great vid!
loved this !! Thanks for the information:))
terima kasih telah berbagi pengalaman tentang corn snake
Thank you! Really helpful 👌
Pleasure : )
Im getting an albino cornsnake tomorrow!! I cant wait
I find this really helpful and ik im late but im making sure to go over these corn snake videos because im getting one for christmas or on my birthday
awesome video this helped me alot!
Awesome, that is great to hear!
thank you so much! this helped a lot!
Please do more they realy help
Nice setup man planning on getting me a corn snake soon
Nice.
Forest floor is the best substrate for corn snakes. Aspen can sometimes cause miner issues but most of the time its pretty safe and very cheap
Like the channel, obsessed with your website, and I love the youtube vids! Thank you for my beautiful baby "Noodle"!☺️🐍
I’m getting a corn snake, thanks for the help!
Awesome, glad you found it helpful : )
Same
So cute
actually looking at your website to get stuff for my first corn snake XD, then stumbled on this video
Great video. Great service. Can't wait to order from you guys again and hopefully see you in May at the SOS expo.
Thanks you Eugene! 😊👍🏻
Thanks man. Appreciated. How about a video of cleaning and feeding the corn snake?
The website reptifiles has a great care guide. Feel free to ask me any specific questions!
Great video bro - I was thinking of doing one like this for my channel but for ball pythons
Thanks bro, good idea! Do it😊👍🏻
The bite 🤣
I found this a very helpful video but I was gonna ask where can I find that enclosure and substrate you used
"plastic vines" more like fake weed ;)
😂😂exactly!
That’s what I was gonna say
Lol XD
Snake weed*
@@VoteLNLSN 😂😂
Great vids thanks! You have a special vid on terrarium set up for a Florida King snake? Got a few babies getting today and have set up but be nice to see what you recommend. Getting two Lavender albino on is Mosaic and a White side poss het axanthic Lavender Albino and Hypo.
Thanks! Glad to hear you enjoyed the video. That is great to hear I would recommend keeping them a very similar way would you keep Corn Snakes, thanks!
Always always use a thermostat with heat mats or heat bulbs
Do they need humity cause I’m confused do I buy a heating lamp or a humidity thing
Can you make a video of you setting up a whole habitat?
Can you do a video on how to connect the heat pad to the temperature controller please
Omfg he’s soo cute I got myself a albino corn but didn’t get him till he was 5years old and I didn’t get to see him as a smol danger noodle might have to consider getting another now 😂
You DO have to have a thermostat.
Can you use mulch from like home depot???? For the bedding
I really want a corn snake but my mom is so scared of snakes so what im doing is showing her that ive done my research and also showing her cute videos of them😂 hopefully it works
Why do you have weed leave on the branch
Because for some reason fake weed is very common when it comes to fake plants for terrariums and aquariums
Awesome video! Where did you get the reptile display case from?
this is it i think www.reptilecentre.com/vivexotic-reptihome-vivarium--small-oak-575x375x42cm_p23624845.htm
Hi I do love your WEBSITE layout
Would this be suitable for a california cornsnake? Thanks so much so helpful
Sorry, may I ask exactly what kinds of bark go into your premium wood chips?
“Maintaining a low enough humidity should be easy”
*celebrates in maine*
I have a cornsnake, and I have minimal things in their tank, but everything needed for a cornsnake. I do want to upgrade the things inside the tank, though, like a small branch for her to climb on because shes always climbing around the top of her tank. Anything that I've tried to put in her tank before aside from whats already in her tank has ruined her scales causing them to lift and fall off. So I'll look for better things that won't cause this lifting of her scales.
I'm buying one shes at least 3.5 feet and not even fully grown need some help on what substrates I should u
Can you do a video tutorial for the basic temperature controller to a rack system or just one heat pad? 🙏🏻 Great video.
Thanks! Yes that is a good idea, we will work on that😊👍🏻
@@UltimateExoticsReptiles I'd really like to use a rack system on a budget with the basic temperature controller and a tutorial on how to use and connect it to multiple heat pads would be much helpful. Thank you so much! 😊
@@UltimateExoticsReptiles hi I dont have a termostat on my heat mat. Do I need to turn it off at night . Or can I leave it on all the times.
currently making a presatation to convinse my parents to get me a cornsnake wish me luck
Awesome, good luck! : )
Did it work? I'm trying to convince my parents too!
it didnt work for a cornsnake because my parents think they are too big for a first snake (sadly) but that presatation did get me an adorable little hognose snake :)@@bbycherub2420
does the entire enclosure need to be at a 45 humidity? even the hot spot? or the hot spot is irrelevant?
I find it very hard to believe these don't require special lighting, unless I misunderstood/didn't hear something on the lines of "...#specual UV lighting", of which this should be clear for those who don't look into pets much, and there's many of those about bud
Is that the right size for an adult corn snake then? Great video. Love the detail!
Hi Jennifer, I am glad you enjoyed the video! For an adult Corn Snake I would say the enclosure needs to be double this length. Thanks!
Can you please give me a link to that tank please and thank you.
I would like to see a video like this for the spotted python. I like these videos very much.👍
Good idea, we will look into it, thanks!
Funny enough my recent snake not my first is a corn snake, my first was a cape house snake but I love this video mines a normal corn snake called Loki since my house snake is called Thor haha
How do you keep the cool side cool in the summer??
Air conditioning and fans.
Could I get a link to that display case. It's nice but when I look it up I find nothing similar
@@beccabaeby2008 does this tank ship to the United States? Thanks.
Where do I go to buy those enclosures
Would a 20 gallon fish tank work for a juvenile corn snake?
Oh wow thanks this really helped. I made a lot of notes lol
anyway i could buy a cage exactly like this one from you or could you maybe upload a vid on how to make it or if you bought it could you send the link plz?
Do you ship the cages and all the equipment to the USA
What size tank did you use gallon and dimensions???
I do enjoy the natural look, but for the beginners who are looking to get their first setup:
I myself prefer plastic, non-porous decorations for hygiene purposes, especially when it comes to hides or water dishes. I tend to be conscious when a wooden hide gets fecal matter in it (especially as the snake gets bigger and those poops begin having larger water content), or when fecal matter is left by the snake in an unglazed water bowl. The only thing natural is the substrate, but that gets replaced and spot cleaned often. With my level of tank hygiene requirements, I started hating the fact that I would buy wooden hides and wood branches and be left unsure on long it'll last. Could be six months, could be one week.
I get what you’re saying, although cork bark is great. What do you provide for climbing enrichment instead of branches?
Do you only ship within sourly Africa or can I buy from you guys if I’m in the states if I can’t buy from you guys could you provide an Amazon page of the things used in this video if you can
Where can I find this vivarium do you have a link for it?
It would be nice if you could make a video on how you connect the thermostat to the heat pad, hope that made sense
Heat mats are not a good heat source, overhead heating is much better for them. A halogen flood bulb connected to a dimmer/dimming thermostat is the most natural and beneficial option. They produce infrared A and B like the sun, heat that penetrates deep into the skin tissue and heats them far more effectively than heat mats. Whereas heat mats only produce IRC, which only heats the surface of their skin.
@@nightinggale6470 Nonsense.
@@joshua7233 not nonsense at all.
Can they drink distilled water
The almighty One yes they can😊👍🏻
What mesurment is that cage
With heat thing
A question. Is it possible to have a corn snake in a bioactive enclosure? I ask because you say to keep the substrate dry and (I assume) the substrate for a bioactive setup would need to be at least damp, so that the plants, springtails and isopods can all survive.
my corn snake is in a bio active; you just need to find a good balance; only misting your plants and getting good dirt that holds the humidity but doesn’t get water logged. the corn snake will most likely dig up the plants though.
would love to get one in the future from a rescue out here or something and this is very very helpful
um what heat pad, case and heat meter are those
Can you put a heat mat under a glass aquarium for keeping corn snakes, thanks
Hi Tony, yes you can do that no problem, thank you
Thanks take care 👍
Heat mats are not a good heat source, overhead heating is much better for them. A halogen flood bulb connected to a dimmer/dimming thermostat is the most natural and beneficial option, Arcadia’s deep heat projector is the second best option. They produce infrared A and B like the sun, heat that penetrates deep into the skin tissue and heats them far more effectively than heat mats. Whereas heat mats only produce IRC, which only heats the surface of their skin.

Would a 30 gallon tall work?
I have a 5ft corn snake in a 3ft by 1ft 15 is this too small or should I get a 4ft by 2ft?🤔
Is it fine if i live in an area where the summer is 20-35c outside and in the house or is that too hot
Corn snakes need a basking spot surface temperature of 30-32 (measured by a temperature gun), a warm side ambient temperature of 25-27, and a cool side temperature of 23-24 (measured by a digital thermometer). Use air conditioning and/or fans to bring down the temperature, and make sure the heat lamp is regulated by a dimming thermostat.
I just got an albino corn... we named him rattle snake Jake lol his brother is a fancy bearded dragon named rango. This weekend tango is moving to a 75gal long tank and Jake will have his 40 gal clean and decorated for when hes ready for an upgrade love the video. I been using eco earth mixed with repti bark.... would livebplants be okay or no?
How big is he? I'd also recommend maybe moving him up to a 75 gallon enclosure as well. 40 gallons is the minimum, but it is probably better to give him some more space to crawl around.
Where did you get that enclosure
would coco fiber work for a substrate ?
Yep.
Where can i order the display cage
What heating pad did you use and can I get a link to it
I'm in the US
Where can I purchase the hide, branch, and water bowl?
I love the design of the enclosure! What size would someone need for a western hognose? Would it thrive in a size medium or large enclosure?
The enclosure should be at least as long as the snake. Adult male hognoses need a 20 gallon long minimum, and females need a 40 gallon minimum. Bigger is better, of course.
@@nightinggale6470 Thanks! I just don't know how long the enclosures in the vid are
Do corn snakes do better in the enclosed wood/PVC enclosures or the all glass enclosures?
Both work fine. PVC/wood retain heat and humidity better, though. And with a glass enclosure you might want to cover three sides so they feel more secure.
Make sure u upgrade it when it grows
I wanna know where can I get that enclosure please send a link if any one know
Do you have a website where you sell this stuff?
Where did you get the tank and how much?
where did you get your enclosure
mind you, my family hates snakes. my dad even thought they were slimy before i told them they werent- he said that i *might* be able to get one... im still researching now just in case yknow
Ok my sister has a corn snake but the snakes system is out of order. She is a big snake but shed twice 8n March. Repeatedly tried to feed her but she keeps spitting it out. Any advice would be appreciated. She's very hungry but keeps spitting the mouse out.
