    Never go by adjectives like "small, medium, large or extra large", go by the actual measurements given of the items...& if it's not given, call & ask or buy from
    a source that puts more thought into their descriptions.

    Who did you order from?
    Might try these? >>> http://www.reptilebasics.com/hide-boxes

    It's not up to me...measure your snake when she's coiled up flat & compare to the measurements given. Maybe allow some room to grow also?
    I have & use hides from R.B.- they're good.

    Re: Choosing hides.

    I've have these size for both my balls the biggest is 1150g there's still room for growth. Sometimes she squeezes in tight and doesn't even fill half of it and other times she blobs out and when you lift the hide it seems to small to go back over her. For my personal preference these are more realistic looking to rock than some others out there.
    Hope this helps
