I think it really depends on the snake and what they are use to. Got a 1300g male pastel. He had always been in a 32q tub in a rack. I put him in a 40 breeder. Wouldnt eat for me for like 2 months. I put him in my rack in a 28q tub... 2 days later he was eating again. Now on the other hand.... I have a 300g russo male. In a 40 breeder. He explores all over eats like a pig and seems very happy. I think it really depends on the snake.
