I have only heard of same sized corns successfully living together without cannabalism. My friend has a small cornsnake which she plans on putting into a large cage with her other larger corn someday when they are the same size. That makes me pretty nervous just thinking about it. I don't often hear about adults eating each other, but occasionaly they do eat each other, how can you gauruntee the corn not eating your hog? In my experience, corns will eat just about anything when they are hungry, whether that means other reptiles or already dead food.
There are way too mnay people online posting pics of their corn who ate another corn, for me to think housing them with other snakes is ok. It may save you a little cash in the shirt run, but think how horrible you would feel if one of the pets you paid good money for dies? The risk alone isn't worth it for me.
