    Cleaning snake cage
    I apologize up front if this has already been covered and appreciate all answers. Just curious what some of you use to put your snake in when you're cleaning it's cage. Like would a 5 gallon bucket with small air holes drilled in the top suffice?

    That would be fine. Just make sure it's clean.

    A spare tub, a pillowcase, snakes bag, etc...

    My two ball pythons are so chill I just drape them around my neck and they stay there until I'm done lol. I have a large plastic critter carrier for the more wiggly ones.

    I either put them around my neck, or I let them slither around on the floor in front of me while I clean.

    I have a spare tub with ventilation holes and a secure lid. That way I don't have to think about them getting into trouble or contacting any cleaning supplies.

    that'll be fine.

    Yellow hangs out with me since he's a real slowpoke, whether around my neck or on the bed. Spaghetti gets put into the Glass Case of EmotionTM since she really doesn't like being out in the daytime and i'll lose her in a heartbeat.

    I hold them, or put them in an empty rack drawer

    I put mine in a plastic small animal carrier :) Paid £6 for it I think and it's ventilated (Obviously) and you can cover it with a pillow case if you're having your beep out for a long time so they don't get too stressed.
