So my H mac has reached the 2" mark and was wondering what the preferred limit on her enclosure size would be?

Quick rundown on the sizes I kept mine in. 1" sling to 2 1/2" housed in a 40 oz. 2 1/2" to 4" a 6"X6"X12". Now as AFs are in 8"X8"14" One has webbed the entire enclosure and seen frequently, sac mate is quite the opposite. Wish I'd had 10"X10"X14" when rehoused the last time, but they're content .
I err on over sized enclosures, space isn't a factor, when it comes to OW species. IME, the extra space gives them more area to retreat to when doing maintenance and feedings.
