Hi guys. I have seen all the recent threads about the size that is needed to permanatly house BHP's, but i have not seen any answeres with the sizes needed. So my question is what size do i make an enclosure that will be big enough for my BHP to permanatly live in. ATM she is 5ft and in the middle of the shedding process, yet again lol. (she is growing rather rapidly, shedding once a month is this normal?) Any replies will be greatly appreciated cheers.;)
 
i have mine in 1800 x 600 x 600 and they will be for the rest of their lives.....probably could be lower if you are pressed for room.

I know some ppl that keep them in 1200x600x600 or 1200x750x600....

Hope this helps.

Dave

Yes that is right. She is eating inbetween a sub adult rat and a weanling rat, is that the right size?

1800*60*60 seems to be the usual size that ppl have their enclosures, so i will just go with that thanks for the help guys.
 
i plan to get a pair of qld blackheads and when they are full grown i was told they would be fine in a 1500X700X500 enclosure.....
