Hi, I keep only Hondurans and I start them in shoe boxes and after a year I move them to blanket containers. I use Rubbermaid and sterlite. They will be just fine in the Blanket containers. I have several that measure about 4 1/2' to 5'. This has been my experience. Again this is the way I house them. I have 30 snakes, 28 Hondurans and a pair of Irian Jaya Pythons. The Pythons will have to be housed in a bigger enclosure, they are in Sweater boxes.
