Any idea if a 4x2x2ft viv is big enough for a 6ft male boa?

not a chance in hell......5' minimum I would say
the bci could always grow.....but even at that size it is pushing it

Chears for the quick reply man.

Any other opionions?

I would go for a 5' minimum.......but 6' would be better mate.
They also like to climb so branches would not go a miss
here is my 6x3x2......3 foot high...I have 2 in there but they love the room and height

Nice setups mate. How big is the Macklotts viv?

[elliot ness]

4 foot mate but he is a bit different.......he was kept in large rubs before I had him .......he is fine there...he stays put at one end or the other.
he is also about a third the girth of the boas
hope that is what you wanted to know and you were not doubting my herping ?

I was not Curious to it's size tis' all.
I've heard from a few people your husbandry is to the best standard and seen it mate.

If you look at the picture....you can see the mack (just left of the cobra)......thats how he normally is...
It was Daves snake and he is very happy with it so that is good enough for me.
He is here a bit too so sees it quite often when we meet up

[snakeman95]

yes thatll be fine because it has to be half the size of the snake!

Yeah, Dave said your husbandry and care is spot on.
