Hi i have got a standard 3 foot enclosure for my coastal hatchie when he is a bit older. At the moment he is in a 10l click clack and he hates it! every time we get him out of it and try to put him back in he fights us all the way and when we do finally get him in there he spends the next 20 mins trying to get back out again. He is 9 weeks old, and feeding well, and i have heard that putting a snake in too big of an enclosure can make it snappy and go off its food. My question is if i put his click clack in the middle of the enclosure and leave the lid slightly open so he can get in and out as he wants, would the extra space freak him out? I have worked it out there will be space for 4-5 different hides in the enclosure as well as the 2 in his click clack so he will have the ability to move from end to end almost completely covered. I know most people aim to have their enclosure roughly half the length of the snake, but at what length would people put a young snake in an enclosure this size?
Cheers
