    To Rack or not to Rack.... that is the question?!?

    Prior to getting my snakes I was anti-Rack to the fullest...

    i wanted the big natural displays with all the plants and real looking hides and this and that.

    Now I’m in the game, with an AP cage sitting here staring at me... and I’m wondering, am I really better off with a Rack?

    thanks to my new pal on here another jersey boy. My mind has been racing this evening.

    I stared looking up racks and the prices are pretty reasonable. Offers the ability for more animals and seems easy to keep and maintain.

    I was worried anout about not seeing the snake or seeing it move about. But I don’t see the dang thing anyways. Now I’m going to set up this big pvc cage for it to hide away.

    I guess im a little confused.

    I have zero plans to breed and just want to collect some of the morphs I love and enjoy them.

    So what woukd be the beenfits of a Rack ... downsides? Has anyone gone from glass or bigger pvc to adult racks and been so happy or vice versa ?

    i feel like sliding the rack open, spot cleaning seeing the snake checking on it feeding it taking it out for handling woukd be so simplified In a Rack. Where now I’m peeking in and around with a flashlight trying to see what hide he’s in.

    If I do catch him out at night and get to see him stretch and climb it is pretty cool but it doesn’t happen a ton. He seems happy and tucked away. He’s eating well. Shedding well and enjoying life it seems so I’m not too sure where to go.

    I did jist drop drop some cash on this AP and have another snake on order. I don’t plan on anymore snakes for a while and I knkw if I had a Rack I’d want to fill it. But other than that I’m not seeing much downside.

    Any advice woukd be greatly apprecited.
