do you think that a 100 gallon screened reptarium will work for an adult jacksons? for example

Do they like to climb laterally a lot? That's a 4 foot tall enclosure and it's almost 3 feet wide. It just lacks depth.

I would think so. It really depends on your ambient room temperature. You want to shoot for an 80-82F basking spot. I keep my Jacksons in 18"x18"x36"
screened cages and I use a 40watt bulb for basking. My average room temperature is around 71-75F and the basking spot hovers around 82-83F. A larger cage doesn't necassarily mean you need a higher wattage bulb though, just as long as you can hit the 80F mark he should do O.K.
