    most males can stay in a 32 qt but the females usually need a 41 qt

    Many people keep adult females in 32qt. I even heard from some thinking 41qt are too big for anything under 3,000 grams.

    I have my 2000+ gram female in a 32 qt rack and she seems content. I will prob bump to a 41 qt rack in the future but for now, it suits my needs.

    I have some 1500 gram girls in 32 quarts, but usually they get moved into 41 quarts, because I need the 32 quarts for yearlings.

    I move females out of 32q and into bigger tubs after about 2-3 years at about 2000+grams.

    Probably. As you can see in most of the responses, many keepers will use 32 qt's for their adults. But for me personally (I'm not an expert keeper or a newbie), Anything over 900 grams gets moved to a 41 qt tub, where it will stay until it gets HUGE. I feel this gives a larger snake more room for constriction, thermoregulation, etc.

    If you are planning to breed her then I would get her a 41 quart tub for breeding room! I use 41 quart rack for my adult males and females!
