Well, Dottie out grew her hides so I figured time for new ones. I ordered up the jumbo RBI ones and let me tell you, they are called jumbo for a reason lol. My 7' boa fits in one comfortably. I tried them for her and she didn't seem to like them. So I ended up stealing the 2 homemade ones I made for the boas from dish soaking tubs and giving those to Dottie and then gave a jumbo each to Vicky, Rosey and Caesar. Saving the 4th one for Rango when he gets big enough. Anyways, looks like these got Dottie's tail of approval as she has checked them out. She tested them for the perch up top and look over. Check! Then she made a round around them. Check! An now she is relaxing inside the cool one. She's in blue atm. She has grown too. She is now almost 5' and like 1809g. I remember when she was just the little 12" 90g worm, how they grow so quick /tear

I'll give it back to her as soon as I get my retic his T25.
Have you ever tried her with branches ??
My Royals spend hours in theirs in the evening .

She's too big for the RBI large hides? That's what I have for my 1700g female and there's still plenty of room for her. But she's only 4', so maybe the extra length makes the difference?
When I first got her, she was around 1200g and I made the mistake of buying the medium hides. She used them, but it was hilarious because it was basically her curled up with the hide sitting on top of her.
She's gorgeous btw.

Well used to have her in a T10 with a shelf and she loved climbing that. I poached it for my retic though. I got 2 T8s which should be shipping this week or next with shelves and all the bells and whistles. I'll give one to Dottie and one to Rango. Then I got to order Luna one and a stand for them too.

Thanks and yup, most of the time, about a 1/3 of her hangs out from under the hide. I mean she can still squish into it but it was pretty clear she needed new hides lol.
