In the paper back petshop book Pythons by P. Bartlett and E. Wagner, they state the cage of any short tail python species should allow the snake to stretch out near full length, and be able to turn around comfortably. They state too small a cage, or humidity issues may cause respiratory problems. Maybe the husbandry has changed since this book was published and more folks have more intimate short tailed python knowledge. Sure, babies do well in a 10inch x 4inch cage, but then again they are probably less than 10 inches long at birth, or close to it. Just something I have read. Shrug??
