30 gallon to small?

[Starling96]

my ribbon snake is 34 inches
and is a 33 gallon tank.
it seems small but im not sure lol
can you guys post pictures of your snakes and there cages?

[RedSidedSPR]

That's a big ribbon!! I don't think it's too small. Your choice. I keep a 24inch garter in a 20gal, plenty of room. 30inches across. Keep in mind some people keep their snakes in tubs. Any good sized viv is a nice set up for them.


Here's mine. It's a lot different now. NONE of the stuff you see is in it anymore. I already had this stuff when I got the cage, then I bought better stuff, looks much nicer/natural than this. STUFFED with objects that look really cool. Maybe I'll post a pic


And as you can see he's not small, but it's plenty of room. He uses ever inch so you can always have more, but it's not needed.

lol thanks and yea shes a monster
i see lots of people not have much in there tank so i want to be the opposite.
i have a piece of driftwood thats hollow and has 3 openings some hides made from flagstone some home made half log hides(more like a quarter log cause they were so big )
,some foilage and some sticks to climb ill try to post pics in a few days

[Starling96]

forgot to add shes a beauty lol

Yup, driftwood and big "mopani" logs is my theme.
Just make sure when you get something from outside (i try not to) you bake at 500 or freeze for a few days. Gets rid of all the dang parasites.

Foliage. Got LOTS of it in mine. It makes good decoration, good hide, climbing stuff etc. Great to have.

Seriously though, nothing from outside should go straight into the cage.

Post pics i want to see her!

I'll post a pic of my current cage(s). (i just got a new baby so now I have two cages)

[Starling96]

i will no camera right now
and yea i baked it for an 2 hours because it was in the water (i got it when fishing)
how do you upload pics on here?
i have a photobucket account if that helps

[RedSidedSPR]

Photobucket (i use that) or the forums "gallery" which works the same.
you gotta upload it there, copy the IMG (think thats what it's called) and paste it into your post. In photo bucket you just click the IMG the bottom link-looking thing, and it auto copies.

"i will no camera right now"? Does that mean you don't have one?

[Starling96]

i meant i dont have one lol
ill use my sister when i go to my dads
i have mild dyslexia thats why
lol
mind if i post of my rat snake just to make sure i know how to do it?

[RedSidedSPR]

I have mild ADHD, starting to look like a certain book/movie series

Sure I'd love to see him.

Here's some more current shots of my cages.



All the wood is "mopani". Really great stuff.






Here's my babys tank. LOVE that mopani, as u can see.
It's a temporary set up. I'll ad some climbs and greenery later on.
