    What hides are best?

    My BP is quickly outgrowing his current hide boxes.

    He (or she) has two of these: http://reptilebasics.com/Medium-Hide-Box-p-16327.html They fit perfectly in the 20 gallon long he's in... but he barely fits anymore and I often find the hides lifted off the ground by him.

    I know they like a tight squeeze but I'm sure soon it will be TOO tight.

    So I'm trying to find good hides they will both fit an adult ball, AND fit in a 20 gallon long.


    The next size up... http://reptilebasics.com/Large-Hide-Box-p-16376.html I'd have to put them in sideways to fit and I'm not sure if that would work very well.

    The only other similar hides I can find are the 'Herpetat Hide Boxes' at Bean Farm. http://www.beanfarm.com/store/agora....dding_and_Cage But I don't really like the whole 'water dish on top' thing. Does anyone have a better picture of one?

    Also maybe this one... http://www.reptilesupply.com/product...roducts_id=275

    Or do I need to upgrade to a larger tank?

    Thanks!

    I'd get a larger tank, not necessarily because of the snake's size, but arranging the cage will be a LOT easier.
