What reptile for a 5 feet long by 2 feet deep by 3 feet tall size enclosure
That is he maximum size enclosure that I can make. I could be smaller. What reptile would fit? I have a lot of experience with large lizards and some experience with snakes. (5 species)

A carpet python would make good use of the space.

Re: What reptile for a 5 feet long by 2 feet deep by 3 feet tall size enclosure
Agree with TB295, a Carpet would love the vertical space...and so would my 7ft Taiwanese Beauty (Asian Rat) snake!
You can send the finished enclosure my way as soon as you get finished with it...my b-day is coming up and it would make a nice present!

Re: What reptile for a 5 feet long by 2 feet deep by 3 feet tall size enclosure
I'm gonna keep posting this suggestion every time someone has a large cage build but doesn't know what to put in it until someone does it.
A colony of green anoles and green tree frogs would be very cool in a large enclosure like that all planted and decorated real cool.

I agree that a large carpet python or some sort of beauty snake would make great use of an enclosure that size.

Someone will do it eventually. People are gonna be real mad when I do it first if they don't. 15-20 little green anoles running around would be entertaining as heck.

Sounds like a great setup for a lizard eater like a vine snake.

A BCI boa, especially a male, would work in that size.
