    question about appropriate size for plastic bin housing
    I will be getting my first ball python soon (I've had lizards in the past). I was planning on using a clear plastic bin (with a lid that actually locks, not just snaps on) for housing, but I was wondering about the appropriate size for an adult male. I already happen to have one that I used when I was moving that is 35 inches long, 19 inches wide, and 13 inches tall. Would this be sufficient? Thanks!

    That's around 150 quarts, I think. That's huge. My adults (male and female) are all in 37 quart tubs and doing fine.

    I just looked at the label, it's 110 qt. Thanks for your input, I just wanted to make sure it was big enough...I guess I'm used to lizards who are more active and require more space relative to their size.
