Cage too big?
Is a 48" x 24" AP cage too big for a Western Hognose? I have 3 T10's on the way for our 3 snakes,but I am starting to think it is too big for the hognose.My wife and I wanted all our snakes in the same size cage. Right now he is in a 20 long. Opinions please.

I would say it's large. However if you give it a ton of ground cover and things for it to hide in/under It would be fine. As long as the snake can feel safe you are ok.

This, loads of hides and you're set.
