Some guy is trying to get rid of his snake. This is the info i have: it is 7ft and 9 years old. My question is, at 9 years old, is it done growing? Would it be humane to keep this size snake in a rubbermaid container, and if so, how big would it need to be? Thankyou

I don't think snakes ever really stop growing they just slow down thier growth, and at that age and size I would give it a proper cage no smaller than 5 feet wide by 2 feet deep by 2 feet tall.
Hope that was helpfull,
Nick

No offence meant. You have had several general husbantry questions latley. I would not get into a 8ft boa until you have the others dialed in. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. MY 2 PENNIES.
