Elapid enclosures

[pseudechis4740]

In my experience of keeping elapids, front opening enclosures are fine for smaller elapids ie Adders and larger 'placid' elapids ie Blacks. For the larger more excitable elapids ie Tai's and Browns I would recommend top opening enclosures.

top opening is safer but i use front opening because its easier for me.

MIne is top open ing, for my RBBS with a small hatch for feeding, to clean or service lights ect, I move the snake to a tub.
The next design I am looking at is end opening, so that they can be stacked.
All elapid enclosurse shpuld be either locked or in a locked room, Preferablby both
