How big is the actual head of this snake? I need it to build stage a prop and i need to make sure it is large enough. Thanks

The cobra's hood is about 2 inches wide and the actual head is as big as a mans thumb. It has a wire inside the rubber so it can be set to look as if it is striking. It is pretty realistic looking.

This snake is much smaller than you would think by the picture. I was very disappointed in the size.

This is pretty sturdy. I've used it as a stage prop for awhile and its still in great shape.

These are too small and light. The larger size has worked for me with a 4-5 foot black snake in my home. It was attached to two of them that I had put side by side....so go larger.

4.5'..it was a good size..but I warn against buying this item. mine was manufactured inside out for some ungodly reason.. I wasn't satisfied.. when I set it up for my Halloween Freakshow themed decoration prop. Failed experiment. I'd look for one of those large cardboard castles if this is for children.

It is ideal for a young iguana as it is what I am doing now. Eventually his size will outgrow the cage but it will allow him to climb and explore until it's to upgrade. Something custom would be needed down the line. I have to spray daily until I get a Mist King setup and can carry it over to something bigger. Good luck.

I would get something that would support the snake at its full size. As a fish and reptile keeper I always get environments that would support the creatures full size. In the long run it might also be cheaper than getting something new every so often.

Short answer: I'm not sure. It is thicker, i.e., bigger in diameter and hence stiffer, than I thought it would be. Personally, I'd advise a smaller diameter snake.

Honestly depends on the snake's size. You don't want to invest in an enclosure that will only suit your growing snake temporarily. But if the size isn't an issue, then I think it would be great! I've seen these used for snakes before. Especially if your snake is arboreal. Just be weary of the door and screen lid locks as snakes are very strong! You might want to reinforce them a bit. Otherwise it would make for a gorgeous setup for your baby :)

This one would cover most if not all of your terrarium. Reptiles need to have a location where they cool off so in a small space as that i personally would get the mini dome. Either case make sure the dome is at least 6 inches away from the highest point your snake can reach since it does get hot. If you have a vet that you regularly go to maybe contact them for more information on heating for your pet.

I have had three catches and each time the snake and the insert were out of the box. The snake will try to wiggle out of the trap, but is so stuck to the insert that they can't get off it, but managed to get the insert out of the box. I just picked up the insert by the edge (at the tail end and not the head end) where there is no glue, put the snake and the insert in a bucket, walked down to a nearby wooded area, and poured vegetable oil on the snake. It took about 10 minutes but he finally managed to wiggle free and slither away into the woods. I did not want to kill it, just get it out of the garage. I suppose if it was a poisonous snake, I would have killed it with a shovel. I love the traps and would highly recommend them. Just be sure to put the box up against a wall, especially if it is in your garage.

Paul: The head is a fixed part of in essence a plumber's snake and rotates along with the whole snake when you turn the handle. I found the length to be a little awkward in that it gets close to the ceiling, however, it works .What it actually is is a snake in a solid tube which makes the snake work much better.

Just a guess here, but I'd say a good 18"-24"I would use it as a prop kind of like a sword.

It is about two inches long with an inch and a half diameter. It has a hole in the middle of it, so I run some wire (baling wire) through it and wire it to a post. This way the critters won't run off with it. It works well. You have to keep up with it. It will disappear fast in the beginning and then slow down.

It's almost 2 inches across the top. The mouth is about an inch open, vertically. as far as its size goes is pretty realistic. I give it about 6.5 on the scale of the paint job of looking realistic. At first glance, it can scare you but after focusing on it you can tell its fake. Worked on my golfing buddies.

Its good size , bigger around in diameter than my backdrop stand metal pole it would hang on. I dont have it here at the moment for exact measurement but the role is heavy with all the paper on it. When i use it i cut off a measured amt i want to use and then just clamp it across the backdrop pole to attach. Its very nice quality. I love the product. It works for me. Hope that helps somewhat

i bought it for my Bearded dragon.. i know nothing about snakes... Except they are a snake.. the tank i got is 47 inches long, 20 inches high and 20 inches wide.. it is he best tank i think that is available .. it is well made,it is Sturdy, yet it breaks down (if needed, such as a deep cleaning or moving..) in 16 mins or less with one screwdriver.. it will secure your snake from escape and all that.. it has top screen locks, and frony door lock , if you decide to use them.. i cant tell you how Awesome it is., it really is the Best available.. at least in the usa.. i say that because, while i was doisawng months of research, .. i saw one that was of similar value in the UK but they don't deliver to USA.. and i do not think that one was as amazing as this one., .. i can and will answer any of anybody questions about this amazing quality and value of a tank.. i am the only reviewer for this Tank and i take the job Seriously.. lol .. i can post pics, whatever anybody needs.. just ask..

Should be fine for a snake about 2-3 feet. Any larger species would probably need a larger enclosure.
