So as of now, i have my only coastal carpet female house in my ball python rack. I haven't weight her recently (too feisty, its hard to get her to sit still somewhere for me to weight her) but i estimate her to be around 1200g -1300g right now and i can tell she is still packing on size. She is outgrowing the tub pretty fast and its little hard to manage her inside the small tub. I'm considering upgrading her to a pvc cage in a few months.
is she big enough to spent the rest of her live in her permanately cage yet? meaning am i as this point safe to invest in an adult cage for her that she will spent the rest of her life in? or do i still need to upgrade later on and stick with a smaller cage now?
She is a super aggressive feeder so i'm not too worry about bigger cage stressing her out but who knows maybe a bigger cage will make her feel more insecure and more mean…on the topic of feeding. which type of door is best to get for an aggressive feeder?, she literally flys out sometimes and i have to gently scoop her back in, but she still would loosen her bite on the rat to strike at me when i do that. is sliding doors better of the one piece flip up ones?
any recommendation on brands and model to go with? i have a RBI rack and love it very much but it doesn't appear RBI makes any pvc cages last time i check. My budget is around $200 give or take a little for both the cage and heating element. Some priority would be easy of cleaning, and built quality. Does a mainly ground dweller need a shelf?
any inputs would be great and would be awesome if any of you guys are willing to show off your carpet cage setup![]()
