Hi Paul, yes, that would be sufficient for an adult (but too big for a hatchling).

although they are on b&q website some of the smaller ones don't stock it. i have got them from from ebay a couple of times from a seller called Yealas or something like that very quick and reasonable. good luck with build post up some pics when finished. I hav built 3 over the last couple of months. all sitting empty at the minute but they are there if i ever need them.LOL

whatever you do make sure it is all set up and stats and temps are correct before you bring home your royal..

you dont want to make problems occur when there is no need

True that, get a wee one, theyre gorgeous! But as BE said, get your RUB set up first and all your temps right etc before getting one and youll minimise feeding issues etc

go mad get all the stuff you need for both and get 2. and as WS said have all set up and temps established first allowing you the tweaking time needed. good luck with your decision..
