Adult mbk hide size?

Just curious my mbk is growing like a weed and would the exo terra medium sized snake cave be large enough for a full grown mbk? I'm also looking at the reptile basics hides as well.

I think a medium reptile basics hide would work

After more thought the other medium plastic hides you could place the water dish on top to save floor space.

Re: Adult mbk hide size?

Personally I would just use something cheep for now. You never know what size they will reach.

My MBK is at 5ft and over 1200 grams and still growing. I thought it would only reach about 4ft and 850 grams.

EDIT: I use Exo-terra XLs, and mine will need bigger soon.

Hope this helps.

I love the natural look and will be easier to clean than what I'm using.
