Hey guys,
i picked up a melamine box for cheap from the damaged goods section of Ikea (!) on the weekend, it measures 660 mm L X 350 mm W X 460 mm H. Is this sort of size going to be any good for an enclosure for a Stimson's or maybe a carpet? Im planning on putting some sliding glass doors on the front, not sure about lighting/heat yet. Any enclosure builders have some advice?
Cheers,
shaun

Would be ok for a stimmie or a hatchling carpet, Though the carpet would out grow it very fast.

350mm deep is a little to small for a snake.

Will be fine for a stimmie, or a childrens, even a blonde maccie (which are gorgeous). Lizards will be fine too. make sure there are no escape holes anywhere either. Good luck.

hi,
that size will be great for any hatchling snake, we have a few about that size and use them for any new hatchlings we buy, they like smaller cages to start with.......
regards,
steve........
