People like to think "I like a lot of space, so the snake probably likes a lot of space" ... we all know that this is called anthromorphosizing ... which basically means putting human characteristics onto animals.

I agree with JYohe, that in theory the place where a BP would be happiest is in the wild, but since we do keep these animals in captivity, we have to provide them with housing that best suit their needs.

Tell your friends that if you put your BP in a 60 gallon tank, and put a hide in there, you'll find the snake curled up under the hide 99% of the time, not lounging out in his mansion.
