    v-18 tubs
    Are v-18 tubs to small for adult ball pythons im trying to figure what size i need to order a new rack right now i have them in 28 quarts tubs on a home made rack but im needing a bigger rack due to having eggs and wanting to expand my collection thank you.

    Vision-18's measure 18"x7.5"x3.5". That is a little small for my taste for an adult BP.

    I keep my males in 32 qt tubs that are longer and twice as wide as the V-18's.

    Females over 2000 grams would benefit from even larger tubs.

    V 18 tubs are for hatchling snakes and up to around 500 grams their v 35's are good for males and smaller adult females and use the v70's for adult females over 1500 grams. Hope this helps.

    v18 are for hatchlings, if you want to purchase from cserpents.com, the racks you need are this for males http://cserpents.com/C_Serpents/Sub-Adult.html and this for females http://cserpents.com/C_Serpents/V-70.html

    You might also want to look into animal plastic http://www.animalplastics.com/ they have some great racks at great prices I use the Sterilite 1755 Series for males and females below 2000 grams and use the Sterilite 1860/1960 Series for larger animals.

    The advantage with animal plastic is that you can really get the rack you need with the number of tubs you want from as little as 3 to 12 shelves high.

    And they also have the economy line which work great if your room temp is steady and above 76/78 degrees.
