    Those were the first two that came to my mind. Or Reptile Basics.

    But I don't remember them having the shelves protrude out further than the sides. I just checked their websites, and I can't see pics of anything that does. But I guess it's possible this one could be an older model??

    Animal plastics has had those shelves that stick out a little in their racks for quite a few years now, I don't think boaphile does that, he just makes the shelf a few inches deeper then the tubs they were designed for. Also the thickness of the shelves makes me think animal plastics. If it is, they'll have their name carved into it somewhere.

    Those Rubbermaid tubs look more like the ones AP uses versus Boaphile too...

    actually boaphile used to use those tubs too, I've got several boaphile racks that use those, but those tubs are pretty old and were discontinued by rubbermaid so they can be hard to find.

    Wow... you guys are good! I tried google images and came up with zippo. I was not in the market for a rack but a guy I know (who i had no idea kept snakes) called me and is looking to re-home his collection. I'm also a cyclist and in the cycling community there is a joke about how many bicycles you should own:How many bikes should a cyclist own? According to the old joke, the answer is: n + 1. Where n is the number of bikes he currently owns. He can always use one more.
    The same formula can be applied to snake ownership. So although I was not in the market for a rack owning one can allow me to N+1 snakes. Thanks for your help!

    That's one of the problems with black plastic, it's hard to keep it clean.
