trex8692 Aug 02, 2007 10:31 PM

Hi everyone im new here.

could someone help point out if possible a snake at adult size which would fit in a lee's kritter keeper/faunarium/herphaven?

i dont know of any such small snakes except for garters, but they grow over the cage limit at adults tho

thanks for your help

For $8 at the local office supply store you can buy a plastic container that in five minutes with a soldering iron, you can turn into a cage that will house a snake 3 times the size the largest kritter keeper will hold.

But to answer your question, reingnecks and Dekay's snakes stay very small, but neither are really good first snakes. You could always get a Brahminy Blind Snake, but it might crawl through the air slots in a kritter keeper... I can't think of any good choices that stay that small.

Maybe a male kenyan sand boa? What size keeper are you talking about?
