I'm trying to decide between a 48x24x12 or 48x24x18 cage for a male Hog I plan to get in the near future. As you can see the only difference is the height - but being new to Hogs I don't know if he'd make use of the height or would it be 'wasted'? I just don't know how much of a difference the 6 inches will be. Of course it matters space and money wise - but that's not the reason I'm asking. But obiviously if I go with the lower cage I'll be able to stack more cages than if I went with the 18inch high cage. Any opinions would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Even a 36X24X12 will hold him fine. the 46" will hold uo to an 8' snake, he will never get that big. But, if you are also housing larger constrictors, then having the cages all the same size would look better.

The 18" would be wasted unless a shelf was put in or some other large piece of cage furniture.
