I have a couple of bigger snakes in 32 qt tubs and the rest of the bigger snakes in 3x2x1 reptile cages. The snakes in tubs can't get away from their waste and so lie in it until early morning when I clean them. The balls in cages never lay in their waste since they have room to get away from it. To me this suggests that there might be a limit as to how minimal a ball python would go were they able to choose their own living spaces![]()
