Enclosures!

[Jake-Beardie]

G'day!

i have found a good 4ft reptile enclosure thats i am thinking of buying for a breadie, but the beardie that i am most likely to get will only be about a 3 weeks old.
would i need to section off a part of the tank? if so, what would be the best material to do so?

Thanks, Jake!

don't know if youd need to section it off, but if i needed to i would use 16mm/19mm white melamine .

ok i was reading up about enslosure sizes and what not and can across something that said snakes get really stressed in big enclosure, is this the case with beardies as well??

a friend of ours got 2 little beardies and put them in a 4' enclosure, they grow so quick that she's looking for something a bit bigger for them now

ok well thats a good sign cos im only getting 1 (at the moment).... A 4ft enclosure should house a fully grown breadie shouldnt it??

Section off the tank....
Hatchies are best kept in a 2-3ft tank.
