Tub size for 4.5ft bp

[Miss_Ann_Thrope]

I was wonder what size I would need, because I'm considering of purchusing a 4.5 ft adult male bp. I have a couple more questions also. Like what would be the reccomended hide sizes and since I wouldn't be able to get flexwatt in time for him (Overnight shipping) I was also wondering would just a reg uth work, if I watch the temps properly?

As always thanks for any and all replys.

I don't think a male ball would need anything bigger than a 28-32qt tub, they aren't as robust as females are fully grown.

I use a 28qt rubbermaid tub and use small cat litter pans as hides (cut a hole in the bottom and flip it upside down). Seems to work well.

Thank you. I was considering kitty litter pans, thought they'd be the perfect size. I just hope that I can get him. I'm waiting on the guy to return my email to see if he accpets paypal or not.

Not necessarily, I have 2 males that are over 2000g. One is just under 2500g at 5 feet.

Kitty litter pans rock. I also use those skinny Priority Mail boxes with a hole cut in one end. Free and disposable.

Vaughn, take that sticker off! (Okay, so I'm a smidge anal when it comes to stickers) BTW, that looks identical to the ones I use... same color, same hole.

lol, i've got asst colors, i use a chunky soup can to trace the holes out. those stickers are a major PITA to get all the residue complety off. i'd rather have the sticker than a smidgen of glue left behind. (i don't want to use any chemicals to get it off).

I know what you mean. Some stickers are a PITA to get off, but it's one of those annoying pet peeves of mine. For the stubborn ones I use Citrusolve which is supposedly pretty safe, but it washes off really well with soap and water.

plain ol soap! lol wow, why didn't i think of that. i'll give one a good scrubbing this weekend, if it is a PITA, i'll be cursing you! lol

LOL. No, the Citrusolve washes off pretty well with the soap. You use the Citrusolve to get the gummy :cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r:e off. I don't know why they can't just use that Post-it adhesive for those stickers in the first place...
