    2 feet isn't enough for an adult. As was said, you want at least a 3'x2' and 1' high cage...mine is 4'x2'.

    When I make my adult racks for a 41qt tub I cut my boards 16-1/4" wide by 35" long this is big enough for the support rails on the bottom and the tub also.

    it ends up looking like this

    how do you heat that massive set up. And I have a snake about 2 years old. 3 feet long male. What size tub should i have him in. Right now he is in a temp tub thats 18qt. But I wanted to know If I should move him soon.

    You can keep em in whatever size tub you want... My yearlings are kept in 96qt... some keep em adults in 41qt... Its really your choice as long as heat/humidity are being met properly.

    one last unrelated thing.

    what does the 0.1 or 1.0 or 1.1.3 or whatever mean before the type of snake. for example 1.2 pastel.
