viv size for adult GTP

rynwilliams Mar 29, 2004 04:35 AM

Would a viv 24Lx15Wx24H be ok for an adult GTP.

Also can you put a hatchling straight into this size or is it best to use a smaller viv to start off?

That size would be enought for an adult chonro, but not for a juvenile or hatchling. I would start with a shoebox or similar size container for smaller animals, as large enclosures can stress them out. If you have the funds and are building a cage, why not go just a little bigger? If you are only keep one animal or just a couple, you can build a cage 30l X 24w X 18h for about $60-75. This is plenty of space even for large adults. Good luck.
