Minimum Cage Size

[rynpckrd]

I have heard that a lot of people keep them in 10 gals there whole life.

I wouldn't be surprised if that's what pet stores tell people.

However, the general rule of thumb that I've read on this forum and from caresheets is that once a ball has passed a year, at least a 20-gallon is necessary.

What are people's thoughts on the Exo Terra glass terrariums?

I think they are great. We use these for our Amphibians and Lizards at the Pet Store, and one for a small Kenyan Sand Boa. The BP's are kept in 20g aquariums, though.

They are very easy to clean and virtually escape proof as long as you remember to lock it.

When I was looking at them, they seemed more tall than long, at least, the ones in the 20 gallon range. Or are there actually more than what their web-site has shown?

I hate it when people keep any animal confined to a small space for a long time.

They come in all sorts of sizes to fit a lot of different needs. I personally love them.

there are a lot of different ones, ranging from the smallest, 12x12x12 to the biggest, 36x24x24

Some ball pythons really dont mind staying in a 10 gallon thier whole life but some even get stressed due to a little bit of space...20 long gallon shall do fine...but me personally i'll keep it in a 40 gallon

I have a baby carpet in a small exo-terra and my ATB in the bigger one. I know they make ones that are longer with less height as well. I love em for these particular snakes.
