Ok, I know Dakota is only 12 weeks old and her faun will do her until she's 18 months but when she needs to move to a bigger rub what size should it be?

Depending on growth the faun may be good for half that time or double that time. As a general guide take the length and depth of a container and it should be about the length of your snake.

ideally as they grow Ailsa, you will upgrade when the housing length plus width is the same as the snake, so when you upgrade make sure its big enough for the growth of the snake so whatever size of rub is appropriate.

it depends on what you want to do
you could buy a 2ft viv and then when it outgrows that buy a 3ft viv, then u have 2ft spare for another snakie, and then/if the snake outgrows 3ft buy a 4ft, leaving a spare 3ft viv
or you could just buy a 4ft viv and partition it off in stages
