    Tots sizes?

    I just got 3 full grown normal ball pythons given to me.

    I was wondering if the 2 full grown females would do fine in a 64qrt tote?

    Housing two ball pythons in the same tub isn't an optimal setup. They will compete for hides and warm spots and stress each other out constantly. BPs aren't social animals and don't benefit from being housed together.

    However, a 64 qt tote is plenty large enough to house one adult female.

    Oh, Gottcha. That size would be fine. Especially if you have a couple of appropriate sizes hides in there.

    Depends on the 64 quarts, remember that the floor space is the most important so if there is a small floor space and lots of height than no.

    If the floor space is at least 36x16 than yes.

    For example while those are similar in size

    http://www.sterilite.com/SelectProdu...=180&section=1 this one is a NO

    while this one is a yes http://www.sterilite.com/SelectProdu...=180&section=1
