Re: 15 To 32 Qt When?,
Everyone does it a little differently this is how I do it
Up to 500 grams – 15 Quarts
Up to 1500 grams – 32 Quarts
Above 1500 grams – 41 Quarts

Re: 15 To 32 Qt When?,
We go by a length to floor space ratio... 1ft of snake = 1sqft of floor space. The numbers below are the approx floor space of Sterilite tubs (we go directly from 6 to 27, since they usually grow too fast to necessitate the 16qt step), so you can get an idea of when we trade up:
6qt = .75 sqft
16qt = 1.4 sqft
27qt = 2.7 sqft
41qt = 4 sqft

I move them from a 12 to a 28 at 600-750 grams.

so is 6 qt the best sterilite to get when you have a hatchling? and then move up to 16 to 27 for juvenile stages and then 32 to 41 for adults?

Re: 15 To 32 Qt When?,
would a 32qt be large enough for the snake to live in its entire life?
