TOO SMALL MAN!!!! I have a 54" female BT. She was in a 4x8, and she looked cramped. All that room goes fast when there is a 5' animal inside it.

In my opinion, a 5'x10' should be the MINIMUM requirement for an adult BT.

As far as the dirt substrate... My BT is now in a 10X10 outdoor cage with all the dirt in the world for her to dig. She dug like 2 or 3 holes, then i put a big rubbermaid bin full of peat moss in there for her. She hasn't dug since, she prefers the plastic tub!!!

So... Like Frank stated above, 2' of dirt really isnt needed, as long as you could provide good enough hide areas.
