 Size question

How big do rainbows get and how big of a cage would one need as an adult?

When you go to a new forum, does it ever occur to you to read the recent threads to find your answer? This and several other FAQs are answered recently. If you’re not good at searching out basic facts, a BRB probably isnt the right snake for you.

They get bigger than a breadbox and smaller than a VW bus. Adults house in an appropriate cage size.

Yep... sounds about right to me!!

Seriously, if you’re asking questions like this you really need to start doing some serious research if you want a BRB that bad.

*sigh* well excuse me. I was just asking a simple question, theres no need to get cocky with me. I wasn’t saying I wanted one soon, just sometime in the future.

well welcome to the brb forums, yea most of the people on here are a little nippy but they usually have a point just a little heads up try to do a little research before you ask a question or you will get burned on here but mainly because the other people on here are really passionate about brb’s so just a little heads up.

alright, well I think that though Brittany was asking a pretty vague question, that MIGHT have appeared a little ignorant, she wouldn’t be like that. I have talked to her several times here on RZ, she is not a new member. I also never saw a set answer on a past thread in here that would answer her question, and I admit, trying to look for it was very tedious! Oh, and it’s not like she (like some) get the snake, and THEN ask questions about how to care for it!!

Also, i never saw her say anything about how she wants one really bad???

Thank you Mr Leo Addict. ;)

I was just looking into the lengths and care of several species of snakes to decide which to get at Daytona.

Males can be around 5-6 feet and the size around like a red bull can, while some females may reach seven feet and be as thick as a pop can or more :)

Um.. no. They get bigger.

Here is a pic of Daev Colling (usernemae rainbowsrus on reptilegeeks.com) with an adult RB, I believe the one in this pic is a male.

Thank you Sara. I saw some at the Repticon, and OMG, they are sooo beautiful. I also held a kenyan sand boa, and then he told me they dont get too big. I’m a fan of larger snakes.

And what was more cute, there was a tortise(sp?) walking around with a donation box strapped to its shell. And I got to hold and alligator! Coolness to the maximum.
