My first Ball python has been in my Care for 1 year coming this Dec 4th. He has always been a sporadic eater, shed well, and been growing, but not as well as he should be. He has also been kept in a 50 gallon glass tank. Recently I got a trio of Balls from Markus Jayne and they have been in a Rubbermaid setup and have been thriving and haven't missed a meal. So I've come to the realization that gets pounded into everyone else’s head on a daily basics, Aquariums aren’t for Ball pythons. So I'm in the process of switching him over to a Rubbermaid and wanted to make sure the one I picked isn't too big. He is currently about a little over a year in age because he wasn't fresh outta the egg when I got him and weighs about 800 grams which to me seems underweight. But given he has never been a great eater that would be why and also he was bought from the Menagerie in Toronto at Parliament and Dundas so he is from an unknown breeder so possibly quality of animal also comes into play. So here is his current size and the Rubbermaid I'm thinking of using.
The pocket PC is being used as a point of reference.
and this is the Rubbermaid
Too big? Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks
