    BP Cage Dimensions

    Being pretty sedentary animals is a 24x24x11.5 size cage large enough for a male ball python through adulthood or would a larger cage be better? Four square feet seems like enough but I'm new to this so help would be appreciated!

    I am sure they'd do just fine in that, I like to provide mine with a little bit larger of a space (4' x 2') but he is just a pet. Obviously many people have great success with less space.

    That would be extra nice for a full grown BP! That much space would probably freak out a BP that was less than full grown though.

    Why are they not freaked out in their natural habitat? That enclosure size is as big as the globe...
