Good evening members,
I have one snake at the moment and he is only small, about 60cm. He (Choc) is a mix of Darwin and Jungle, het Albino so I am estimating that he will grow somewhere between 150cm to 220cm.
I know I am going to need a large enclosure for him in the future and am contemplating building one out of MDF or Melamine but have heard that wood enclosures won't last all that long due to water damage and they also hold the smell of feces after a few years?
I have looked at pre-made plastic type enclosures that seem like they last a long time, are relatively easy to clean and won't hold the smell of feces like wood do.
I would love to hear experienced members thoughts on which enclosures are the better option?
I know the price of the plastic type ones are a few hundred to one thousand each and that likely plays a big part in why some consider the other the better option.
