Poor mans vision cage

pick this up for about $10 from target so far best tub purchase ever! made by Rubbermaid and so far I've seen they have 2 sizes.http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps9461db6d.pnghttp://i958.photobucket.com/albums/a...pse44754ba.png

I saw those too, but I wondered about how secure they are. How tightly does the front close? I would worry about a larger snake being able to get out, but man does that look cool for littler snakes.

Id say 5.00 in extra parts and it be snake proof but right now a snake can open the front

You can easily modify it to be escape proof. That's a great find!

The gecko people have been using this for a while. It looks like a great cheap enclosure!
Nice pick up.

They have a small, a medium,and a large, I believe. I have considered this option for my BPs for a long time now, I'm still working on a snakeproof prototype in my mind. Would love to try it out.

nice pick up

very cool, do they come in bigger sizes? curious what one would do to make it snake proof? drill some holes and use some kind of fastener or lock?

The large is approx. 67qt, if I remember my calculations correctly. However, it does sacrifice floor space for vertical. And I'm thinking a few deadbolts would do the trick, but I kinda wanna,get my hands on one to try it out.

My immediate though was a hook and eye closure on each side, just glued or riveted near the top. Unless the plastic is really bendy, that would probably work.
