I always hear a ton of horror stories from friends about their snakes escaping and I really don't want that to happen to me. I also also hear that a normal terrarium isn't the best enclosure for a bp.
I was wondering if you guys could recommend any good cages made specifically for balls, something very escape proof?
PVC snake enclosures from Animal plastics
A normal Sterolite container with locking lid

A sterilite container with binder clips on the sides, or luggage strap wrapped around.
These aren't baby colurbrids. They're not tiny and not they're not fast. Any reasonable amount of cautious with awareness to cracks, holes, gaps, and the strength the snake can exert from inside it and you're fine.

This is what I believe most use size wise for their adult BPs. They go by different names as manufacturers change.
This is inexpensive and if you go the melamine rack route, lidless makes everything easier.

It is really not hard to have an enclosure escape proof. Almost anytime a reptile gets out it is due to carelessness of the owner. I have a variety of different tanks/tubs. Only time I had an "escape" was from once forgetting to close the lid.
Any tanks with latches or locks are your best bet if you are really worried. Even the ones that just have kids that pop off aren't hard to keep properly secure.

Re: Good escape proof cage?
Do yourself a huge favour and buy a pvc cage or a three tub cb-70 rack.
While your shopping for those pick up a good thermostat.
You will make your life soooo much easier this way.
I say a three tub cb-70 rack because once you get one.....

I recommend a Zilla 40 gallon critter cage with a sliding top or an animal plastics cage. The sliding top on the zilla doesn't lift upwards and it locks in place with two built in clips. It's escape proof.
