    Boas in tubs

    Anyone who has their Boas in stand alone tubs or racks post pictures. I know everyone loves to post and show off what they have and what they have created for homes.

    Plus I want to see what you have so I have some ideas.

    Luckily my company I work for sells pvc sheets, 4'x8' sheets in various thickness'.

    I think I am going to make a two tub rack for cb70 tubs.

    Dude...share the hookup on the PVC Sheeting. If you can get it cheaper than 112 LET ME KNOW! lol

    I keep my boas in 74 qt tubs. they are like 3 inches shy of 4 feet long.

    Maybe if you lived on the east coast I could hook you up, but you can actually come pick it up if you want to drive accross the us to NH

    for 3/8"x4'x8' I can get at roughly $75 a sheet
    for 1/2" I can get roughly $100 a sheet
    5/8" I can get around $110
    and I can get 3/4" and 1" also.

    Pat thats only including the 4'x8' sheets....

    I need to start building racks just don't have the tools or work space.

    The red bowl is our het kahl albino female Lillith. The blue is het kahl albino male Baal. The last pic is our little snake cart, with the ~1000g female bp on the top. Soon, the boa tubs will get turned sideways to make room for 1.1 Blizz corns from BHB. Both the boas are from Jimisnakes.

    They are heated with UTH on a powerstrip controlled by a dimmer switch, and seems to work out really well.

    Edit:
    Sorry it is sideways, stupid photobucket isnt changing the coding after I rotated it.

    I wonder how much precut sheets would cost to have shipped?

    Nice and simple, that's what I'm going to do when I get them while they are young.
    Do you have them in a heated room at all? or do the UTH's keep the temperatures perfect.

    I know you can buy like 4'x20' sheets and get everything pre-cut for you. I'm not sure how much it would be though I would think pricey.

    Room is just standard room temp, a little cool actually. The cool side is maybe a bit too cool, usually likie 78 or 79, but the warm side is wherever i want it to be, usually 90-91. I tried it at 88, but they were always on the cold side, with it 90+ they thermoregulate consistently.
