    Ok this MAY SOUND SUPER SILLY!!!! But I guess I wanted a tank to Look at from time to time instead of having to open a lid from a tub and take it out. But if you all suggest I get a tub....This cool!

    nothing's stopping you ;) but make sure you get all the temps/humidity going for like a day before putting the snake in.
    10g tanks are $15 on Wal-mart.

    Again, it's just a preference thing.

    i have 2 in a glass tank and 1 in boaphile, tbh i havnt had any problems with either of them, the boaphile does hold the humidity better but it really hasnt been that big of a difference between the 2 for me i just have to spray little water in the glass from time to time but it usually stays pretty decent and havnt had a bad shed or anything yet in either lol

    i personally like the glass tanks because i feel its easier to see inside but thats just personal opinion, i use:

    http://www.petsmart.com/product/inde...ductId=4070851

    got them on sale for $100 at petsmart lol and it has worked great for me easy access and looks great

    Boaphiles are are brand of professionally made plastic snake cages. Personally I prefer Animal plastics over Boaphiles.

    Here is a thread that covers these types of cages in detail:

    I own only boaphile cages. They are all very nice.

    I also have exoterras and as long as you cover the screen they hold humidity quite well.
