Breeding

Corn snakes are one of the easiest reptile species to breed in captivity.

Consult a snake breeder or a good corn snake book if and when you are preparing to breed your snakes. Bear in mind that after the eggs hatch, the babies are an enormous responsibility, so if you do not have a good plan for placement of the babies, do not breed the adults. Breeding is not necessary for their health, and you do not want to be responsible for the deaths of the babies, due to your inability to maintain them or place them in good homes.
