Childrens Enclosure

Hello there i have been searching the net and this site but cannot seem to find the minimum and maximum size for a female childrens python by itself. All the websites give it for pairs and trios not individuals and help would be greatly appreciated


cheers Scott

Some people will keep them long term in small tubs and they are fine .
for an enclosure 600x400x400 with a shelf in the middle is what i use .
