Josh, It really depends on the size of the adult BHP. Some adults can fit in four foot by thirty inch cages but some need six foot or larger cages. How big are the adult blackheads you are getting? Some adults are six foot and some are ten.
Both of mine are slightly over 8' and are in 4x2 Neos. I intend to move the female who's larger into a 6' Neo shortly for breeding season, but they seem happy to sit in the hide box most of the time. They ARE burrowers, anyway.

I keep my adult females in 6 x 3. The males in 4 x 2.
Although, defining an "adult" BHP can be widely variant.
I have proven females that are 6 feet... and ones that are 9 1/2.
I guess it really depends on the size of the individual snake as to what cage you put it in.
Cheers.
