    Is this secure?

    Hey all, I'm getting a new hatchling corn tomorrow and was wondering if this cage is secure enough to prevent an escape.



    Do you think I need to any extra clips or clamps on the sides?

    Thanks!

    I had some similar bins (a little taller - file folder sized) that I used with some carpet pythons when they were a bit smaller. The built on clamps do a very decent job. If you've got them fully clicked down I can't think of any way you would need anything further to secure that.

    I had my hatchlings in shoe boxes for a bit and they didn't even have clamps but did great. The little buggers never got the lid off (and my Lily tried like the ****ens!). I did have them in a 29 gallon with clips on in case they ever did escape but now have them in a rack (still in shoeboxes). So far so good. You'll probably be fine (though I have heard of people using bungee cords for extra security when they're a bit stronger). Good luck!


    BTW - is it a normal? morph?

    Actually I'm getting two. One is a blizzard corn and the other a rubber boa. They will be going into separate but similar cages. I'll post pics once they arrive.
