    New additions? what do you recommend?
    Hey. I have two empty enclosures (heat mats and all), in a rack that someone made for me. I'd really like to put something in them!! What do you recommend?

    Also those aren't remotely ideal enclosures. Snakes need humidity. Humidity will mess up that plywood.

    I didn't know that! Thank for the reply, and the info! :)

    What if the plywood was finished? Then would it be usable?

    If you seal the plywood, it should be ok. But as of now, it's just going to suck up all the moisture and expand/sag. You can also just attach plexisheet to it above the tubs perhaps?
    Or maybe you can use it for a species that doesn't need humidity.

    Awesome! Thank you. I am more of a Python/Boa guy, so I'll probably just seal it. Can anyone recommend any reptiles that could live comfortably in tubs those size? I am open to any and all suggestions. I'd like to explore more options. I'm not a huge colubrid fan, but as I said. I'm open to suggestions!

    Yup! I'd like an animal that can live their entire life in these comfortably.

    Not really. People don't pay attention, I put that I bought my snake a cage in my sig, to avoid that problem and people are even more rude? That doesn't really sound "all good" to me.

    Hm... I suppose you can fit smaller species in there like sand boas, rosey boas, rubber boas, angolan pythons, spotted pythons, and children's pythons.

    Most other adult boa/pythons need more space than a 41 qt tub. You can fit babies and juvies of the larger species in them fine though.

    Thanks. And in response to the last part, I am chill. No one is going to miss my signature, so I don't really care.

    Also, Rosy Boa's and Sand Boa's do not need humidity (iirc, too much humidity can kill a rosy). I don't know about Rubbers though :/
