I'm very interested in starting up with a monitor but I want to do it right and not rush into things...I really like savannahs and waters but as someone posted earlier...maybe it's a good idea for me to work my way into waters by starting with savs...anyway...I've got a 72 sqaure foot room that would need to be modified or a 15 square foot enclosure right now...how many could go in the smaller enclosure???

I'm thinking a single adult if even that...any suggestions...

ALSO! Post some pics of you Savs so I can see what I'm getting into...not too many monitors in the area here...

She was around 80cm total lenght. Lived in a 4x8 feet. I think 15 squarefeet is too small for an adult.

That's probably a good size for a single adult or a pair of juvies. Billy
