    Re: Tub "Tags"?

    I don’t label the cages any more, and these aren’t exactly what I used, but close. The ones I had were for use with business cards, but it looks like business cards would fit in these, too.

    https://www.amazon.com/Clear-Plastic...g+holder&psc=1

    I used double sided tape to mount the tag holders to the cage, then I could just switch out the cards as needed. I used sheets of printable business cards so that anyone could read it rather than trying to decipher my writing.

    This is what I use, when a male goes to a female tub a smaller round tag moves with him so I know where my male is.

    I use badge holders simply because I do not want any stickers on the tub itself (it would be an issue when fully cleaning and bleaching once a year)

    Thanks everyone for your help!

    I'm thinking that I like the idea of marking the racks with a more permanent writable sticker for probe slot # (like pretends2bnormal posted) and liking the hang tags for the tubs so that I can move snakes around more easily.

    Have any of you that use the hang tags (with the clips) had any issues with the clip part not working after a while? I'm using the V70 tubs and they are thicker than some tubs..I wasn't sure if I'd have issues with them being too thick for the clip to hold on to.

    I really like the idea of printing tags to go into the holders also. My hand writing is total crap, so printed tags would definitely be easier to read and look better.

    I'm undecided on the pvc cages...I'm wondering if removable double-sided tape would work to attach cage cards.

    I type out and laminate cards for my snakes then use the peel and stick Velcro to attach to tubs. It's simple to put the snake in a clean tub and just slap the Velcro tag on along with them and stick the dirty tub in the to be washed pile. The small square of Velcro left on the tubs can be washed or even a small amount of bleach water soak without any issues. Just make sure you keep it universal for which side of the Velcro each item gets so they can all be switched from tub to tub.

    An update for you guys. I ordered supplies and have made some tags. Avery, the company that made the inserts I printed, had a website with tools to edit and make layouts for the cardstock business cards I used. It was pretty easy to use.

    I will post pics below of how they have turned out. I'm very happy with how they look so far. Thank you to everyone that gave feedback on this thread!
