    Rats in racks!

    Hey there just a question.

    I noticed alot of you keep your ratsnakes in full setups. Is there an issue in just keeping them in large sterilites?

    I personally don't keep a ratsnake, but I do have a couple of corns and a MBK. They've been fine in a sterilite, but I do feel like the ratsnake family are very interactive with their environment and benefit from a full set up.

    But, if it means anything, BHB does keep all of his colubrids in racks.

    I keep all my snakes in tubs fit to size, including several rat snakes, and I don't have any problem...I take the snakes outside regularly in the summer, but for the most part, they seem indifferent to their enclosures.
