Hey All... Do you think a "Blanket Box" is big enough for 1:3 geckos?

Hi,

Just getting ready for this breeding season (mine ended little over a year ago) and its gonna be alot different this year. I'm going to focus more on my Tang Tremper Albinos, Blazing Blizzard Double Hets, Hypo Tangerines, and some reduced spotting Hi yellows... But here is my question. I'm wanting to keep my colonies 1:3, so I dont get way more geckos then I can find a home for. I was just curious as to whether or not the blanket boxes would be sufficient space for 4 adult leopards? As always I appreciate the replies...

Thanks,
Richie

It all depends what the dimentions of the box are. What ARE the dimentions of the box you would like to put them in?

Hey,

Heres the size... 22 1/4 x 16 1/4 x 5 3/4... So what do you think? Big enough for 1:3 in it?

Thanks,
Richie

That size is actually a sweater box and I do not put more than two adult size or 4 hatchling size leos in them.

Hi Steven,

You sure about that man. The dimentions came from Boaphiles page under the "Blanket Box" rack unit description. I checked out the sweater box sizes and they seem much smaller, still bigger then the shoe boxes, but smaller the then listed blanket box measurements...

Thanks,
Richie
