Is this bin big enough for colubrids? (namely cornsnakes and variable kingsnakes)

Thanks!

That is not going to be big enough for adults.

Find some scarlet kingsnakes and you might have a winner .. :-D

Hm. I think I may have unintentionally posted the wrong one.

<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.organize.com/storboxclear4.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.organize.com/storboxclear4.html</a><!-- m --> this is the one.. still probably wrong, given my luck.

If anyone has a suggestion that would be nice too.

I keep about 40 breeders. Various types of kingsnakes and milksnakes. I use 32qt bins, and they are adequate even for my adult hondurans. The first tubs dims are probably ok, but you don't need them quite so tall. I did not see the second tubs dims only the capacity. I use sterilite tubs personally, but the type of tub u decide on is up to you. It all depends on the rack and the dims. Just make sure whichever you go with are easily available, and it's great if you can get some smaller bins for juveniles with the same height dims if you want to incorporate them into the same rack. By the way, I believe the ones I use are model 1751 if I remember correctly. The worst part is when the manufacturer stops production on them, which is what happened to me! Check out some rack manufacturers for some dims and ideas!

I know it has been awhile since this post, but I finally got bins. I ended up going with a rubbermaid 41qt with dimensions of 29x18x6h. They have latch handles which I will need to remove, but otherwise seem to be pretty good. I can't find them online anywhere, or I'd put a link to them I got them at target though, for ten bucks each

That is a great size for adult kings, corns and milks. I keep adult female balls in those.

Wonderful! Glad I got the correct size. Now to get the melamine to build the rack itself.
