    Racks?
    I was wondering where the best place was to buy rack systems for adult ball pythons (anywhere from 4-6) that were good quality and a decent price?

    i've bought several racks but I like my homemade racks the best. doesn't hurt that they cost half as much either.

    i do hear good things about reptile basics racks though.

    This is a GREAT rack, very cheap too.

    http://www.animalplastics.com/

    holds 6 adults or 12 juveniles (or any mix of those options)

    "The only difference between our economy plastics racks and our regular racks is an open side and back system."

    which too me doesn't make a difference.

    I agree, I love my Animal plastic racks. much cheaper then vision(though I love them too) and the same basic design. When I was getting it set up all Ineeded was a screwdriver.

    I bought my 6 slot economy rack system from Animal Plastics as well, and I couldn't have been happier. Assembly was very easy. Although I did buy my thermostat from Rich at Reptile Basics, and he was great to deal with as well.

    It's also good for your growing juvies.

    I personally feel that's too small for a good sized husky female bp. But for smaller females and males should be fine.

    I agree...my 1300 gram (or less) females and males do fine in my 32QT rack but above that they really seemed cramped (so I also have an ARS 41QT rack for my breeders)

    I thought you were looking for adult racks? That one is a 6qt tub, it's not going to hold anything bigger than a hatchling.

    For bigger adults:

    For the average sized adults:

    Animal plastics has similar sized equipment. Check out the Iris CB-70 for the bigger adults and the Iris 375 for average or smaller.

    I just purchased and recieved a 32qt rack from Reptile Basics and I'm very pleased with it. Belly heat and dividers are extra cost but the rack itself is very nice.
