Hello;
Could someone recommend the ideal cage (sizes, styles, manufacturer) for BHP from hatchling through adulthood. Thanks

To answer to your question you really need to answer some other questions! What do you want to keep your snake in, do you want to see your snake in its cage, how much room do you have for a cage and how much do you want to spend for a cage? The snake will be happy if it has ample room to move around, a hide spot, fresh water, suitable temperatures and food. Some blackheads also get 10 feet while others stay around 6-7 so that also is something to think about. What kind are you getting? Is it a male or female? from where? do you know how big it will get? They grow quickly and can be 5-6 feet in their first few years! Let me know some answers and I can give you my opinion on what I like but that still may not be what you like!
