Is a cage 4x2x1 too big for an Okeetee adult female....

or would there be a lot of wasted space? I plan to buy some stacking boaphiles w/ the same dimensions for my kings - but they are very active and I wasn't too sure if that would be too much for a corn? Thx.

Depends on what you mean by "wasted space"...too much is not enough from a snake's perspective. But from a human ruler's perspective that is quite generous. Nice photos in your file BTW. Best wishes...

Thank you! I guess you're right....I just have this 'fear' of giving a snake a nice sized cage like that and then they decide to stay in one spot, never exploring, etc.

Decorate it with branches maybe put in a woden shelf,etc your corn will use it all love it.
Your other snakes will to infact. Thats what is nice about a bigger cage.
