    How many per cage

    What is the most amount of snakes you have in one cage?

    Re: How many per cage

    I have one tank with 8 snakes in, but they are all about 8inches each, and the tank is 4 foot by 18 inches, loads of climbing branches and loads of hidey holes, will split them as they get bigger, but loads of room for now...

    I keep them all in separate cages....babies I will keep in groups, but will watch when feeding. All adults are in their own cage....unless it's breeding time!!!

    I currently have 27 snakes and they are in 27 different enclosures, including the juviniles. Everthing seems much easier this way for me.

    Woah, that's a lot of tanks. Do you all have specific snake rooms then?

    Re: How many per cage

    I have a mother-in-law apartment on the back of my garage, has a decent sized living room, bathroom and kitchen (minus the stove, and the outlet for one....don't know what the prior owner's of the house were thinking when they built it....or a lot of other stuff) Work's great as my "Critter Room"

    Re: How many per cage

    Sorry, but the maximum number of snakes per enclosure really depends on the size of the snakes and the size of the enclosure.

    Re: How many per cage

    And more things than that sometimes, like what type of snake and how well you can monitor things going on in their cages. I just was wondering what people were doing.

    Re: How many per cage

    Good poll abcat.....I was kind of curious myself what everyone else was doing. I'm going to be setting up a large setup and was contimplating whether to go with very large multi-snake setups or several smaller individual ones.

    Only the tetrataenia's are with three specimens in one terrarium.
    In all the other terrariums there are two snakes.
