Good Luck!

I wouldn't put a ball python that is under 300 grams in a 25qt tub, that is just oo big IMO.

Did you read the demension of the tub. It is much smaller than the 28 qt, just about perfect.

Yes I read the dimentions. I keep my snakes under 300g in 15qt tubs, which are half the size of those in floor area.

I bought this today, I figure it is about 14ish quarts. It had an incorrect lable on it so I'm not sure exactly. Will this be good for a while?
I already tried it out with my current exotic.;)

That will be fine although it is a bit large for a hatchling. Just make sure to clutter it up with fake plants or something!

You can use bungee cords, luggage straps, or binder clips to help keeep the lid on. Personally, I like the luggage straps...
