[frost]

How many snakes are you talking about ?? What size tubs??

i have two ball pythons and im planning on getting a few more. i have a red tail that im keeping in a 30 gall tho. hmm doesent have to be very big most if not all people i see using them dont have very big cages at all.

When I was keeping Amazon Tree Boas and Irian Jaya Carpet pythons this is what I used. It isn't your traditional rack where you don't have to use lids, but works just the same. Another benefit of this way is the shelves can be moved to accommodate different size tubs.

These might not be the exact tubs, but you get the idea.

I'm going to use flex watt heat tape and a ranco t stat from ReptileBasics.com Its much easier and cheaper to make your own. Also you can keep your boa and bp on the same rack until your boa outgrows tubs of course.

Yeah previously I had 5 ATBs and 3 IJs. I sold all of them. I still have the carpets that I picked up recently.

Oh, i read it wrong. Glad to see you still have the carpets. ATBs are great, looking at one in the next year or so.

where are you located? we built one 6ftx18in. build the frame first then use the tubs as a guide so your shelves are even.

If you really want a GTP or ETB, just look around. Good deals come along.
