as i am new to royals, and snakes (use to keep bearded dragons)

i was just wondering how big a royal needs to be until he can be put into an adult sized viv (4ftx2ftx2ft)

got this viv read from when i had lizards, i have a small rub inside the big viv at the moment

cheers for any help

A guideline is: length + width of viv = max length of snake. So if the viv is 1.5' x 1' the snake is ok up to 2.5'

So when the snake can go along the length and down the side its probably time to move up a size.

not sure the exact sizes to be honest. i got the viv off a mate. i just don't want to whack the little bugger into a bigger viv until she's ready. i guess i'll know when she's out grown this one as she won't be able to move around too much and not get into her hides properly eh.

1.5 x ?

Probably when she outgrows that one.

how big before going into a 3foot viv then? just wondering as i have my snake in a 1.5foot viv at the moment and she's getting bigger slowly..

ok cheers,

I would say 3 or 4' before going into a 4' viv.

A 3' viv is plenty for all but the monster Royals.
