    Can 36” enclosure work for adult BP?

    Looking to the future and trying to figure out where Astrid will go. Can I get by with 36”for an adult? I know 48”would be better, but is 36”doable?

    Following this thread because I currently have my male BP (500 grams) in a 36" x 12" x 12" pvc enclosure. I purchased a AP T10 (48" x 24" x 18") with the plans to move him but now I'm thinking I would rather put my 1st BOA in the new cage. I will say, that if he outgrows his current RBI hides, I don't think a bigger hide will fit comfortably in the current enclosure.

    I am looking at animal plastics. I am either going with the t8 or the one a foot shorter 36x24x12. The 36 inch would work better in my space, but I don’t want to cramp her too much. (I don’t actually know if I have a male or female, just saying her for now)

    Along those same lines - at what point can you just forego hides for Boas.

    My largest boa is getting to large for the RBI hides but the xlarge RBI hides are too tall and exceed the distance needed between the hide and the RHP.

    Just thought I would ask. Didn't mean to interupt your thread.
