Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

White lipped python
Hey guys, first post here! Just purchased a juvenile white lipped python and need to purchase a cage for him, have a ton of reptile experience but this is my first white lipped. Any suggestions for dimensions? Want something that'll last, but also not stress the snake out, having it be a nice display is a big plus too! Any tips or brands would be great, thanks! Custom setups are an option too but not looking to hurt my wallet too badly

For an adult I would plan on a 48"x24"x18" enclosure. I've never kept them but I do have Savus which are similar in temperament, just smaller. They are very active and will use vertical space if you give them stuff to climb and perch on. Since they need high humidity I would go with a PVC enclosure.
Until he gets up to size he'll be fine in a tub.

As long as he has lots of hiding spots he should be fine. It's not like liasis are known for being problem feeders.

Tons of manufacturers for enclosures that size... ConstrictorsNW, Animal Plastics, BoaMaster, Boaphile, Monster Enclosures... just search for their web sites, see what they offer, prices, etc.
Or if you're at all handy with power tools you can buy 4'x8'x1/2" PVC sheets and DIY.
