It's 9" high/deep, 16.25" wide and 39" long. It's not exactly generous accomodations,
Im kinda confused, the BP care sheet from NERD says the following:
Quote:
Fortunately adult ball pythons do not require exceptionally large or elaborate enclosures. A 36" x 18" x 12" enclosure will more than comfortably house an adult ball python.
Are the dimensions quoted from NERD too small, Im in no hurry but eventualy Ill order Plisskens final home from "animal plastics", and I dont want to get the wrong size.

Same here I read that everywhere. I read that as long as they can stretch out at least 2/3 of their length its a good size.

I finally named him...
Another rule of thumb Ive read in an article in reptiles mag (I believe Bob Clark wrote it but cant remember for sure) was the enclosure should be large enough to fit your snake a minimum of six times if he/she were coiled up. (you know coiled up when they assume the shape of a honey bun) :P

We house the majority of our adults in Freedom Breeder racks, the boxes in which measure 33"x17"x8.5", and they do fine. Very simple, straightforward setup.
