I've been reading various articals lately on housing adult Emeralds and the concensus seems to be "bigger is better". The one article I read in Reptiles Mag. about using a plastic laundry tub as a base, built up with glass/screen sides for a hydration chamber could also be an exdcellent cage provided you have ample ventalation. I looked into the demensions of such a tub and the dimensions would be 24" wide 20"deep and if I built it up to a total height of say...42" would that be big enough to house a happy adult Emerald? Anyone breeding Emeralds please respond as it would greatly help into my research for the perfect cage before I actually make my purchase of my dream snake. Thanks in advance
