*are they fusy eatters
*do they smell??
thanks...


- they are usually anywhere from 3-6 feet

- id say if its a baby use a 10 gal but you will have to get something bigger as it grows so i would just buy the 20 gal long tank to void the idea of having to get it later and spending money on 2 cages....unless of course you want more snakes then youll have an extra tank.

- mine loves to be handled she comes to the top of the cage when i open it and goes right to my hand.

- In general NO they are not fussy eaters...id say 1 out of 5 people have trouble once or twice with the snake not eating during the course of its life. usually if they stop eating something is wrong. examples: tank temp and stress.

- as long as you keep the tank clean no they do not smell

P.S. you can get alot of information from this forum just scroll through and read some of the posts.
