Answer #1

No, they should not be kept together. They will resort to cannibalism (eating each other). They should each have their own tank, not even 2 to a tank.

This is for a few reasons:

It’s easier to tell if a snake is pooping (good) or puking (bad) if they are by themselves.
Snakes aren’t pack animals, they would just as soon be alone.
Stress over having to compete for the best temperature or hiding spot can cause illness.
Corns have been known to occasionally eat each other.
