Enclosure- Size of snake
So I have decided on another BCI. Talked the wifey into it. The enclosure I will be using is a converted hutch that is 48" long, 14.5 deep and 24" high.. I know the depth is rather shallow so my question is at what size should I move the snake into a deeper enclosure?.. My last BCI (ages ago) was about 6ft and in a 4x2x2.... Thanks for the help.. Cheers!

Re: Enclosure- Size of snake
I'd say about 4 feet, 5 at the very most.

Re: Enclosure- Size of snake
Thanks! That will give me some time to figure out if I will buy or build custom for the larger tank
