    Proper Tub size for small/med/large snake?
    I tried searching on good and looked around here. What is the right size tubs as far as the size/weight of the snake goes also any brand you would recommend over others.

    people use a ton of brands rubbermaid, Sterilite, Isis.

    most people use the 6qt size for hatchlings, then go up to 19qt( shoe box size) for juvies, then 25qt or 36qt ( sweater box size)

    if you are putting them in a rack I prefer the isis tubs because they have straight sides if you are using them as stand alone I prefer sterilite locking lids to the other brands.

    These are what I use, other peoples may vary but this works well for me...

    All of my tubs are sterilite
    6qt for hatchling to 200 grams
    15qt for up to 500 grams
    28qt for up to 1500 grams
    over 1500 grams I use 34 and 40qt tubs

    6qt for <200g
    15qt <400g
    28qt 400-1800g
