I have a 3 and a half year old female red tail boa. She is starting to become a big, powerfull snake. Hard to guess her length, but she is right about 6 to 7 feet in length. She is eating large to jumbo sized rats.
Right now I have her in a 30 gallon long breeder tank (critter keeper style). I am tying to decide if it is time to get a bigger enclosure yet. She seems quite comfortable in her current tank, and don't know when I should move to something bigger. When I do get something bigger, what can I put her in next that will be big enough for the rest of her life?
I like the cages from reptile basics that are 2 foot x 4 foot x 1 foot high. Like this:

BUT that is a lot of money... and the tank she is in now is 3 feet long... so I would only be gaining 1 foot.
Please help and post your setups for your bigger snakes if you can!
