When he's closer to adult size, I'm planning to build him a nice wooden enclosure with sliding glass doors on front. Probably somewhere around 8'L X 2' W X 3'H. I'm hoping to make it a bioactive, natural setup, but I need some experience with this snake before I decide if that will work.
That sounds awesome! I think you should just go for the bioactive substrate- especially in a beautiful enclosure that big. It's not a matter of if bioactive substrate will work its more a matter of what type of bioactive substrate will work and how to make it. No snake lives on paper towels and fine aspen shavings in the wild lol. Again congrats on the indigo- I have been reading on them, cool snakes man. Start keeping an eye out for shower doors- the best quality free glass a snake - cage maker can get.
