66 minutes

I have 2 redtails, monday or tuesday I pick up my spider female, waiting for my het axanthic female and have 3 more boas waiting to be born or "weaned"... so I needed space. The 2 boas are in 40 gallon tanks and take up lots of space.. so a trip to home depot and 66 minutes of assembly yielded this...


5-32qt sterilite. Grabbing the sterilite in a few minutes. Putting back on after I score more heat tape...

So after making the mistake of using the container dimensions, I ended up with a rack that requires lids. I can however use the extra backboard and place under each tub. This will minimize the gap to just over 1/4 inch. I am placing a front lock system (back is getting 11" heat panels tonight) so there will be no way for them to get out even at a 1/4 inch. Lids or Lidless.. I dont have 40 snakes yet and the next one I build will be lidless at "CD height" .... This is why I built a 5-32qt cause it will become a transition rack. Thoughts...

You will change every rack you build ;)

Ok so I am currently using what I had on hand for heat. 3 feet of 11" as back heat. I have it pretty much maxed out and am getting 86 degrees "ambient" around the rear of the tub. Is this adequate or should I run 4" belly heat as well.

I also found some awesome bowl to use as well. I was looking at the Glass Ramekins everyone suggested but found these awesome melamine cereal bowls. They are perfect IMO.

So here is what I am working with...
