>> Will this be big enough for him when he is full grown?

no ...
i know right now, the dimensions sound + look *huge* but it would be waaaaaay too small for an adult ig ...

an adult ig is going to be 5-6' long nose to tail-tip and it's *body* is gonna be around 2' (or more) nose to vent ... in a 5x4x2 cage, he'd barely be able to move and wouldn't be able to climb at all ...

your best bet is to save the money you'd spend buying a pre-made cage and build an enclosure yourself ...

check out some of the links below for ideas, etc ...

good luck!
