| | | | RE: Enclosure size, is this size alright?? Yeah, you may aswell make it 1200L x 600w x 600h im sure you can fit in the extra 5cm to the width and height.
I house an adult coastal in this size and he doesnt seem to mind at all. Plenty of thermal gradient and room to cruise around in. |

I would suggest a bit more height - 900 min really.
Cheers

| | | | RE: Enclosure size, is this size alright?? Good point ad, if you can make room for extra height then that would be good for sure. Im sure the snake would utilise every bit of the enclosure quite happily. |

| it will be ok, my 4 x 3 year old coastals live in the same size, we put him in a taller encloser and he hated it, we ended up putting him back into the old encloser,
