Wanting to buy racks?

So I got my taxes as Im sure alot of you have. I want to buy some racks. But Im a little confused if I should buy a rack for what I have currently as far as sizes, or should I buy my rack for my snakes to grow into? Im looking at all the different racks and most of my snakes fit in 12qt racks. But a few within 100g-200g will be about ready to go to the next size. Any recommendations?

Well if you don't have a lot of snakes at the moment then just keep them in the smaller tubs and put them in the larger tubs later. It all depends on how much you want to expand and how many snakes you have currently.

I bought my racks when my snakes were still small, I got CB-70 tub rack from reptile basics (the link is in my sig) and my snakes have been happy and fine.

I would go with what your going to need so you don't have to have a bunch of racks laying around, unless you are going to keep buying snakes to keep the tubs from going to waste.

You could get the 4x 32qt tub rack from RBI, if you buy the tub dividers that means you could keep 8 snakes in the rack. When they grow bigger, you get a second rack and move 4 out to the new one. They can stack on top of each other, it's a very nice rack.

RBI, Animal Plastics, Boaphile Plastics, are all good.

I have 2 racks from Animal Plastics, 1 from Boaphile and a cage stack on its way from Boaphile.

JW Exotics also makes racks.

Just be sure you dont get a rack that only fits the showbox size tubs. I like the ones where you can put 2 shoeboxes or 1 of the juvi/adult size tubs in one shelf. Leaves room for growth.

Check out the do it yourself threads on racks too. They are fairly easy to make if you have a little skill with wood working. No different from making a book shelf with heat tape and holes drilled for cords and thermostat probes.
