    I was looking around and I found this sterillite tub that looked pretty nice, what do you think, to big for a full grown breeder bp?

    Hi,

    Are you talking about the 44 inch long one without the wheels?

    It does seem a bit big. Is this for a rack or a single standalone?

    Oh and get more peoples opinion beofre deciding. :D

    Yeah I really don't know what I am going to end up doing. I think what would be easier is to see what you guys are using for tubs and the different sizes of tub that use use for adults, sub-adults, hatchlings, etc...

    Hi,

    Have you had a look in the caging forum? If you use the * character you should also be able to search the site for tub size threads ( ie the search term would be "tub* size" without the quotes).

    I would say its not too big...

    Some breeders keep the large girls in 22x16 tubs some keep them in 33x16.

    Make sure your temps are good and you have two hides and your good to go.. If its in a rack the rack itself may provide some darkness and you may only need one hide.

    I've used both and they are fine. If you can find Suitcase Straps for the middle, they work wonders. Either that or bungee cords(you'll need two of them).

    The 41qt underbed boxes work well too, that's the size the majority of Ball keepers use.

    I think the split-lid ones are around $15. The 41qt ones are usually between $6 and $8.

    Must be a big girl for a tub that big.
    Most house even their biggest of breeders in a 41 qt.
    But you know your snakes better than any of us.
