Tubs

Would Rubbermaid tubs from Walmart work ok with Ball Pythons? I was planning on building my own rack system and saw some 41qt tubs at walmart last night that i would like to build around. Any insite on this?

Thanks,

I prefer the iris tubs because they are flat on the bottom (no grooves).

Do you have any pics of the ones you use?

I prefer the 28qts and 41qts sterilite from target. Walmart also has them but they are of different design and not as flat.

The 41 are the same dimensions as the 28, but they 41 are longer.

Old pictures but hope you get the idea. Dont have any pics of just the tubs sorry.

Cool! Thank...I'llgo check target out and see what they have. 41 qt is sufficient for adults..correct? Where did you get your heat tape?

Thanks again!

Yes 41qt is what most people use for the bigger females.

The heat tape is from RBI, it's the 11". So are the hides and the ranco lol. Even the feeding tongs!. http://www.reptilebasics.com/heating/

Very good bussiness! :)

Great site! I think I'll be making some purchases from there!

How long will a 28 qt last them? My snakes are between 3-5 months old...and maybe 20-24 inches long (haven't gotten a scale yet).

Just as an aside, I use the 41 qt tubs from Target as well for my adults and sub-adults, and they work great!

Alot of people keep their males in 28qts their whole life and just move the females to 41qts later on. Im not sure my self since I dont have any adult BPs, but I would say 2 years or so for the females?

Hey.

What size are those hides in the tubs? I wanted to order some and that gives me a good size comparison.

Those are the "Medium" size. I'm yet to buy the "Large" sized ones, But I'll be trying soon.
