Do you use potted plants in your enclosure, or have you figured a way to maintain them in the substrate?
What species of wood do you use for your branches? Where do you buy/collect them, and how do you affix them in your enclosure?
I know what you mean about the "Don't worry a larger cage is coming" syndrome, I've seen it many times through the years as well. I've seen that keeping juveniles in little tanks and tubs is a common recommendation in many care sheets, hence why I asked.

I buy potted plants but remove them from the pot to plant right in the enclosure. Always wash your plants before introducing them to an animal.
For wood, you can use anything but pine and cedar, but I would advise against using grape vine in a humid enclosure unless it's been treated. I LOVE mopani wood. I also use cork and vines. I either buy them from
Welcome to Black Jungle Terrarium Supply - The Natural Choice! or I collect them outside.
Yeah, you can definitely keep smaller snakes in smaller enclosures, just make sure you have the means to get that larger enclosure later down the road.
