The dimensions are 565 x 405 x 140mm

i dont think it is too small really, ive put scrunched up newspaper balls either side of the hides to make it all really compact. but ive only done this recently, considently when he started striking.


this response came from me starting to heat the mouses head so i assumed it was a feeding response.

hes a subadult captive bred 06 feeding on medium mice. hasnt really lost much weight at all. did defeacate? shortly after i housed him, which backed up the advice that he was eating well.
