Coastal Carpet Housing?

ttreptile1 Jun 24, 2003 07:39 PM

I am picking up a breeding pair of coastal carpets and am in need of some ideal housing for them. Can anyone tell me what they have theirs in and where to get a decent type of cage. Both snakes are 6ft or so. The female may be gravid and is slightly larger. Any help would be awesome!

A tank measuring 5 ft x 2ft x 2ft. I would seperate them though, and have two tanks, you could go a higher as my coastals dont mind climbing.

cheers

The minimum that I use is 6ft feet of floor space, ... many brands out there, dimensions of 3 X 2 X 1.5 seem adequate for even the larger carpets, oh yes, and house seperately,
Hope that helps
