okay thanks !
i was wondering, Ive got my king snake in a small viv at the mo, as hes only little
but am thinking of moving him soon as hes already had a growth spurt!
was wondering about getting him a 90cm (about 3 foot) viv,
or would he be okay in a 60cm? due to limited space and everything,


:)

Hi Hanna ive got a 4 month old mexi black hes cool. Ive not had him long hes about 2 and a half foot ish long and when I bought him
he was in a small container in the shop. I took him home and put him in a 3ft and hes settled down great. My advice would be to put a few hide places like a fake log or you can buy a fake rock with a hole in the front my snake seems to like that one as they do get nervice being so little and young so ive been told. When you get a chance post a photo on so we can have a look.

heya and welcome
i personally wouldn't overface him with a big viv just yet, i'd save getting a 3ft viv till he's nearly 3ft long himself
