was wondering how i know when to move her up a size RUB? she's currently in a 30cm each side RUB but seems to be getting a bit big.

her full body length is bigger than the length of the RUB. does this mean its time to move her up?

I been reading around the site the last few days and the general opinion is you upgrade its size when the length of the snake is the length + depth of its RUB.

Dont actually own a snake yet but looking to get one in the next month or so. So have done a bit of research before buying.

EDIT: I maybe wrong but others will confirm either way

Simmy is indeed correct. The general 'rule' is that once your snake is equal in size to length + width of its enclosure, then its time for an upgrade!
