    How large should the sterlite tub be for an adult ball? 32 quarts? Also, is aspen bedding the best to use? Thanks a buch!

    Re: tub setup

    32 Qt tub will be fine for most adult males and juvenile snakes. However some of the larger females may be a little cramped in a 32qt tub and fair better in 41qt tubs. Aspen is a very commonly used substrate along with paper towels, cypress mulch, newspaper, craft paper.

    Anything but pine or cedar as the fumes can be lethal to snakes.
