If you put a small snake in a large enclosure will it become more agressive or nervious becuase it does not fell secure ?

Actually it depends on the animal...some snakes feel more secure in smaller enclosures while other would rather roam... Its usually best to start out in a smaller cage to get the animal used to his new environment, and establish eating...breeding may require a large cage for some species while not for others.. It all really depends on the species and even that particular animal...If you have a question about your particular snake, let us know the size and type, wild caught or captive bred...etc.
good luck

Well The snake in Question is a 3 1/2 foot femail Wild caught Ball Python. I had her in a 25 gallon tank for 3 months. then about 3 weeks ago moved her to a enclosure that is 4'long, 2' wide, and 3' tall. Now she is still eating regularly but seems to be more nervious when I first pick her up.
