Jungle Carpet enclosure orientation

[baldegale]

I agree 5X2' floor space.

I also agree fine for life. Jungles get quite a big larger the IJ/Darwin's, and my boy, Yafe is a mix. I was told 3X2X1.5'+ and he is in a 4X2X1.5'. He enjoys the floor space, and the 2 feet deep allows for two different perches (front and back) and different heights.

Keep in mind, they want to be off the ground much of the time, but utilize floor space as well, and can even use hides regularly.

Yafe spends about 70% of his time, especially at night, on his perches.

Also, the off the ground part is more important than how far off the ground, within reason. I would not keep an adult carpet in a smallish tub, or low tank that doesn't have climbing space, but at Yafe's adult size of about 5 feet, he will be fine with the 1.5' feet, as would most carpets.

They like to hunt from above and Yafe will strike and eat if in a hide, but prefers to nail his prey and coil while hanging from a perch.

this is what im talking about, thank you for the info!!! i plan on doing naturalistic so plants, wood, cork tubes, etc etc. might also make some ropes that go across throughout random spots
