Hatchlings in a cb70?

    Hatchlings in a cb70?
    Can a baby bp be kept stress free in a cb70 or is that just way too big? I'll have some
    extra 70s hanging around and was just wondering if I could keep any hatchlings in those without stressing them out? Of course I'd have lots hides and a big shallow water bowl to take up space.

    I do have the option of setting up a hatchling rack no problem but I was just wondering if they could be kept in a larger tub stress free (and these tubs would be the opaque grey ones from ARS).

    And another question about the grey tubs: I am about to order some tubs from ARS and I am not sure if I want all grey or to get some semi-clear ones? I kinda like to see what the snakes are up to but if being in opaque containers cuts down on their stress (and not just talking about hatchlings, but my snakes of all sizes)

    Any input on these issues?

    If you would put it in a cb70 you would have to fill it up with a BUNCH of crap to make that snake feel secure. Just go with the hatchling rack, you'll have better feeding responses once you offer them the first meal!

    And with the opaque thing i keep mine in semi-clear ones and havnt had an issue, but i would imagine it would cut down the stress if it was opaque, kinda like how they say with a tank to cover the sides and back.
