Hi could anyone tell me what is the best type of viv for a FWC? Should i have one that as sliding glass or one that opens from the top?

Thanks
Ian

It's kind of a personal preferance thing. I happen to prefer a top opening cage for these, as if they are hungry and you open a sliding (side ) door, you could be face to face with a snake known for having a powerful feeding strike. It is easier to approach this snake from above as an upward charge is not as fast.
