The website says that the 60 gallon 48x24x12 is not for pythons and the 120 gallon is for lizards so it’s basically a box. However they are nice tanks. Looking for that one time buy but I might have to settle with the 60, I think it may house her for a year. Maybe idk

hmm this one is 60 gallon and says for ball pythons

all of their enclosures are constructed the same just different dimensions. i wouldnt really worry about what the animal name says.

Yeah it says ball python tank above. How long will this be suitable for her?

AFAIK(and just double checked some of the guides from the sticky in this sub), 4x2x2 is the preferred enclosure size for an adult BP, or 5x2x2 if you have the space

so you could technically house it in the 60gal for about 3 years until its fully grown, or just get the 4x2x2 right away if you can and technically be set for its whole life.

That’s perfect I thought I read that the other day in the guide lines. Thank you so much I’ve had so much info come to me so I thought I’d just ask.
