I agree with RKO-Our largest burm at 17 feet is in a 6 foot vision and she has no problems-she stays coiled most of the time and doesn't move a whole lot. She weighs around 150 lbs. She will be getting an 8 foot boamaster cage next year when we retire her from breeding.
ok now i'm mad the job i thought i had the little :cens0r: hired a transfer petsmart can go to . . . *the number you have dialed has been temporarily disabled* aggravating people in a hiring position

I feel kinda bad for a 17 ft snake in a 6 ft cage... the cage is a third the size of the snake.
"The length of the cage should be - at a minimum - half the length of the snake."---Burmese Care Sheet
But I don't keep giants...
The first cage she had as an adult was 8ftx4ftx4ft we were told a long time ago they did not need that big of a cage-we watched her and she stayed in one corner of the cage-she did not use all of the cage. We moved her into a 6 foot vision last year for a temporary trial period and she has done great. She has no problems eating or shedding. She does not roam and we get her out often and she has never been a problem. She has a hot side and a cool side-she moves from one side to another-very slowly and not very often. Most of our bigger burms seem more secure and calm when they are not in a big open cage.
Well I sent a message to Kevin at NERD, he said that for the most part, his largest are kept in 8' x 3'. And that their largest may end up in a 10'. But they dont like to keep anything too large.
