I want to get a pair of IJ's at the NARBC in Chicago this October but had some questions first.

I have a cage that has the following dimensions; 45"L x 45"H x 17"D. Would this be ok for a pair? This cage has a; well secure pegboard back, sufficent basking area, plenty of branches, large water bowl, and a plexiglass front. Basically everything you need. I was just curious about the cage size.

Also, is there any one here that will have IJ's at the NARBC in Chicago?

I have: 1.0 veild chameleon, 1.1 corns, 0.1 az king, 1.1.1 tiger sals, 0.1 fox snakes, 0.1 3-toe box turtle, 0.0.3 gray tree frogs, 1.1 Crotaphytus collaris, 1.1 Crotaphytus binctores

IMO that is perfect for ONE adult IJ but not a pair.

That cage is plenty big and actually is more than what is needed. I never keep two snakes in the same enclosure though, you may want to consider two smaller cages, or at least making another one. I got my female Irian Jaya from Tinley Park show and she turned out pretty good, but I think I got really lucky too. The best guy IMO to get Irian Jayas from is Yasser @ spitfire reptiles. I got a male from him this year that already makes my female look much inferior. Hope I could help.

Thanks for the info. That is a stunning animal. Do you any pics of your enclosure?
