Tall tank for a BP?

You need some cresteds for a tank like that. More than enough room for 1.2 and you'd probably get eggs left and right.

and if you really want a snake...ETBs and GTPs aren't as difficult as they seem...a snake hook will help immensely in saving you from bites while they become accustomed to your maintenance routine.

Not to forget, Carpet pythons are considered as some good beginner snakes and they would love that space.

Would the ball utilize the space? The girl has an etp in there right now.

I think it's just too good of a deal to pass up :P But I want to make sure the extra space doesn't stress out a BP or anything.

Thoughts?

you guys arent very creative:P
turn that cage on it's side and you have a nice ball cage, the lamps can go on the screen part tahts in teh front right now and you can modify the lid a bit if it needs to be secured

LOL I didnt even think of that!

I have no clue where it's gonna fit in my room though >_<

I could throw some of my cresties in it, but I dont think a bp would be comfy in a 20 gallon long (which is where my adult cresteds are currently).


Oh yeah and I found out yesterday the enclosure is 3x2x2

Well, I went out and got it :D


it's laying down on it's side at the foot of my bed (makes things a little more cramped, bigger than i thought it'd be lol).

now I just gotta clean it and get all my other supplies and hopefully i should have a happy lil bp in there by the end of the month :)

perfect size for a ball! are all teh lids lockable or very secure? i cant wait to see your setup!

actually, they're all sliding screens...i figure duct tape probably wont be best, so any suggestions? i have it laying on the side so the side screen is on top.

the screen at the top is actually two screens split down the middle (but they only slide out to the right, hard to do since my bed and carpet is in the way)

there's a heck of a lot of water spots on this thing lol.

hmmm.......put your braincap on lol. maybe for the screen that will be on the side of the horizontal cage you can somehow get holes in the glass, then push a wire through eat hole and through the screening, twist the wires very securely and that should hold it. as for the screen youll be using to oppen the cage. i dunno, you ponder that one lol. if i come up with any better ideas ill let you know ok?
