Re: Biggest snake on the forum?
This is Marty a couple years ago, with my kids. He's now closer to 14 feet, but I don't have a camera as I keep buying herps!

Re: Biggest snake on the forum?
Good eye, Denial!
Yeah, I have a pair of ackies in there, though they will be moving shortly to a 6x3 so I can make room for the growing bp collection along that wall.
Besides herps, I'm always making new enclosures and getting food for the horde!

Well, it sounds a little tight to me too, but I only have a couple of burms and neither of them are even close to 20 feet so I really don't know.
How many 20 foot snakes do you own that you are able to make that statement?

Think about the breeders out there who use rack systems for their burms and retics, you say that like no one has them.
There's a couple 20ft burms on here. I don't remember who had them though.
I think an 8' by 4' would be a bit better.

But.
I don't advocate for exposed electrical fixtures within my animals enclosure. You can buy...or very easily build your own protective covers. You can find them at this website...http://www.pythons.com.au/Reptile_Products_lighting.htm
Sure...people say "well I have never had an issue with my reptiles and lights in there cage..." But I think it is an accident waiting to happen thus putting your animal in danger.
...eh everyone is a critic right?

I've always been told the total cage size, length + length + width + width, should NEVER be shorter than the snakes size.
6' + 6' +3' +3'= 18'.. small than a 20' snake..
6' + 6' +2' +2'= 16'.. way too small
An 8' x 4' would be a great size for anything 20'
