Snake Rack

[NathanP]

I'm making my own rack for BP's and I was curious what kind of tubs you guys use. Like could I buy some at Wal-Mart or what? Thanks

Target Sterilite. I like the sizes they have and the appearance. :]

I use the 28 quarts from target. they were $4.69 a piece for 23"x16"x6". worked great for me so far.

we use 27 for juvies 41 for adults and 15 or 6qt for babies. I move my babies up after a few months to 15 and then to 27 when they are about 600 grams. Right now my adults are in 41 hoping to have a new job soon so i can afford my ars and keep them in cb70s. I have my fingers crossed.

Thanks. I'm also curious on your ideas of making a rack. Any ideas of what to use? I was thinking an old bookshelf. And also where can I buy heat tape for the racks?

Yup, check out the DIY forum for several different styles of racks. A bunch of members including myself order heat tape, all the connection parts and thermostats online from Reptile Basics. There are several other online vendors that sell the stuff also.
