BP cage size

sapphire_moon · 07-15-03, 08:41 PM

I have a BP that is currently housed in a 40 gal breeder tank. She is a little over 3 ft long. I am thinking of putting her in a 75 gal tank for her final "home". Does anyone think that a tank that big is to big for a bp? Does anyone have any pictures of a 75 gal bp set up???? If so let me know!

I am also planing on purchasing another baby BP this week. Would a 20 gal long be to big for him????

Thanks in advance for all your ideas/opinons/answers!!!!

I have mine in a 4'x20"x26" wooden enclosure and thats what im keepin her in for her life time. I think the tank is just about the right size. Sorry i dont have any real good pictures of her tank.
I have 2 hides one on each side water bowl on cool side and climbing branch in the middle and she seems to like it.
Happy herping,

P.S. I kept my ball in a 20g untill it was about 2 feet long or so

good, I have no problem with spending money on my bp as long as she (soon to be they!) are happy!

Why do you say that? Snakes aren't born into 3x1 boxes in the wild

No such thing as too big, only too open.

Linds has got a point,
Bigger is almost always better as long as there are enough hides.

Actually my BP seems to prefer to be out of her hides, and in the open? Is that normal?
