Can I use this for a baby ball python? Would you suggest a small or medium or something entirely different?

I would recommend a long(also known as natural) medium sized terrarium. But eventually you'll need something much bigger :)

I would get something that would support the snake at its full size. As a fish and reptile keeper I always get environments that would support the creatures full size. In the long run it might also be cheaper than getting something new every so often.

Only if they're babies as and if they grow to around one pound you should readily consider getting a larger enclosure unless you want her too stay relatively the same size in which case you should feed her less as much as a baby

Depends on the snake. Id say a snake that gets about 4-6 ft. in length and also lives mostly in trees (or climbing environment) would be a good fit, personally id go with a glass/acrylic tank for a snake environment if it isnt a species known to climb. This cage will also make it more difficult to keep high humidity due to the air flow. You will also most likely have to weigh down the bottom to avoid it tipping over with a large snake. You're better off getting a large tank instead.

If it was me, I'd get a medium sized one. It'd be big enough once it's grown and the divider that comes with it can divide it for house training.

I have a dwarf hamster in mine - they dont get as large as a teddy bear hamster. If you plan on letting it use an excercise ball or add connecting tubes to enlarge it. I think I would go with a larger cage.

You may need to size up for a bird that size. I have a pionus and its the perfect size for him.

I'm sure a medium would be fine. My poodle is at 17 lbs. and I have a small aerodawg. It works perfectly. It only has to cover the snout.

my first suggestion for you is to move immediately! As for this mesh it is tight like a screen. If anchored reasonably taught and embedded in the dirt consistently across the bottom, I se no reaso it wouldnt keep out snakes. I do not however know the strength or diameter of such reptiles as "babies" and I assume if they are persistent enough they might be able to nose though the fabric's weave. My suggestion is to double up the fabric, pull it taught and bury the bottom a few inches in the ground. Good luck.

Personally, I think this is way too small for an adult ball. I also don't know if I would consider it the most secure enclosure for a master escape artist like a snake.

If I were you, I would absolutely go for the larger cage. They need a bit of room to stand up and move around ( as you know), and the extra $50 would make your "baby" so much more comfortable!

I got a large, and it is small by many standards. I cannot imagine how small the small must be and im sure it could only be useful for a very short time. My son could use the large from 5mo. I would highly recommend going with the large.

I do not recommend it. I have tried it with a smaller snake. It was very difficult and scratched the bowl. This is much larger and likely to get stuck or worse. Try an old-fashioned plunger. Better yet, try to find a cleanout and run the snake from that direction. Good luck.

Its not big enough, this is for a hamster. Even if it was big enough, guinea pigs should not use exercise balls, it is very bad for their sensitive spines. No joke, google it.

It is ideal for a young iguana as it is what I am doing now. Eventually his size will outgrow the cage but it will allow him to climb and explore until it's to upgrade. Something custom would be needed down the line. I have to spray daily until I get a Mist King setup and can carry it over to something bigger. Good luck.

I bought this for a dog that weighs approximately12-15 pounds. I think the medium would have plenty of room if you wanted to add a blanket or something. But I would assume the smaller one would work better.

Yes tho the Spiny tail lizard gets pretty large for a lizard and is strong. You said he's/she's medium size okay it would fit for awhile so my answer is Yes it's a good investment. Lol Charles and Gizmo

I have both the small and medium. The medium I have at the end of its extensions for my bigger cat which weighs around 13-14 pounds. If there is any chance of growth you may want to go bigger and just tighten it down.

only if the ball python is a baby. If they grow to 5' to 6' long there is no the terrarium would work. Now, you might see if Exo Terra makes a larger terrarium. The one we own is for a gecko.
