I followed 2 different tutorials from this forum https://ball-pythons.net/forums/show...%20tub%20setup and https://ball-pythons.net/forums/show...e-Basics-*DUW* to set up a new rubbermaid for my ball Charlie. Pretty much everything is done the same except I have an infrared laser thing that tells me the temp inside the rubbermaid instead of the acurite.
I have 2 bungee cords wrapped around the rubbermaid in addition to large binder clips around the edge (there are 12 total, 4 on long sides and 2 on short sides). The edges seem secure and I cannot move or stick my fingers under the edge into the tank, so I am pretty sure that it would be difficult for him to escape. I am wondering if anyone has experience with balls escaping rubbermaids even with these precautions? Charlie is pretty big, so I am paranoid. I do not want to sell off the glass tank Charlie was in previously just yet in case something goes wrong with the rubbermaid.
