My "Hercules" is about 6 ft ,an Albino Burmese Python any suggestion on a large cage that would be big enough for him down the road when he gets bigger?

i'd say around 12'length 5-6'width 2.5' height should be good for him. Very costly to buy, a bit less costly to build.

most people would go even bigger, cause these snakes get huge

i have to disagree. unless you get a monster of a female (18'+) you shouldnt have to go bigger than an 8'x3-4'. and if "Hercules" is a male then that will definetely be big enough for him. if you have the space you can give him more room if you like though:) good luck

Well, the more space for the snake, the better. But i geuss 8x 4 is good enough.

a few times when reading about housing snakes iv seen alot of things saying the cage should be half as long as the snake is. so like a 4 foot snake only needs a 2 foot cage. iv used this rule mostly, sometimes a foot shorter (usally for more lazy snakes) and sometimes a foot longer.
