    Wee keep ours in 6.5 quarts until they hit 400 grama and the move them to a 28qt rack. Since your tubs are 15qt you probably can wait until they are 600 grams.

    I did it obviously wrong. I've had hatchlings in 37qt tubs.

    It all depends on the snake to be 100% honest. Iv had hatchlings do fine in the ARS 5040 rack, as soon as they hit 200-300 grams, I also have a few 800-1000g girls in the Hatchling 1075 level.

    If they eat then they can move, if not put them back in smaller tub. Heck iv even have a 150gram snake do fine in a 7030. (41qt size) and shes now fitting nicley at 1800g!
