    how big of a ball you wanting to put in it? Even my girl whos 4000 grams fits in a 40qt with plenty of room. I know from what I've read and researched ball pythons dont really like the whole bigger is better. They like smaller enclosure to feel more secure.

    On some level, as long as there's enough stuff (hides, fake plants, etc) so it's not just a big open space, any size above the minimum can work. If, on the other hand, you leave it all bare, the larger tub might be too big. It's really a matter of how you choose to furnish the cage/tub in question.
    Mountain bikes are for slow people, and reptiles are far better pets than cats & dogs!
