    Is my hide the right size???

    I have been hearing this a lot lately in some different threads. As a rule balls love close tight places. Just how close will surprise you. Heres a good visual for those of you who are wondering. I hope this will show every one that they don't like big spacious hides.

    This is a 32 qt tub in my sub adult rack.


    This is how big the hide is just so you know.




    And this is the 800 gram snake that goes in it.


    See nice and cozy.

    I don't upgrade their hides till they absolutely can't fit any more. Tight hides also help the feel secure which leads to better eating snakes.
