| Males are normally a little smaller than females 4-5ft with females usually around 6ft,alot of top breeders keep them in blacket box style containers but I prefer and they do look good in natural style viv say around 3-4ft long,2-3ft high and 2ft deep. |

I have 8 JCPs and they are kept in an assortment of Really USeful Boxes and Vivs.
I will and do use vivs for all my adults and these are 36 x 24 x 24 cinhes in size. This I find gives them enough room to roam and perch off the ground if they require it.

3x2x2 is ok for smaller jungles i use both 3x2x2 and 4x2x2 for the larger adults ..
i think tubs for adult jungles is cruel as they love to climb etc
unless you have massive tubs
