    Question Tub for juvenille

    Hi all...
    This is my first post! I was just wondering, if there is any harm in starting a hatchling in an adult sized, 41qt tub? I've had no problem after starting 2 juveniles each in a 20 gallon long tank, which has a footprint similar to the 41qt tub. Also, I was even thinking this might preempt the possible feeding issue of moving to a larger enclosure later. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    I'm pretty sure if you just clutter it up a lot then the size won't stress him/her out.

    Yeah, just try and put a lot of stuff in there to make it look smaller.

    You can give it a try if you want. But if the snake doesn't eat consistently, the first thing I would do is move to a smaller tub.

    I've had no problems when using appropriate sized hides. They have no small enclosure in the wild, but they still find tight spaces to hang out in.
