We will be getting a hatchling next week and I'm trying to get it's tub setup but running into some issues. We have racks for our other snakes but they are Iris CB-70 racks so obviously too big for a hatchling. So I'm trying to figure out how to setup a 6qt sterilite tub for the little one. Breeder just has bedding and water bowl in tub since he uses racks. If I do that and have sitting on an open shelf in our quarantine room, wouldn't he need hides? And if so, where would I find hides small enough to fit in a 6qt tub? Anyone have ideas on maybe a closed shelf idea similar to a rack but for just the one tub? In the past we would have just set up a 10 gallon tank. But since moving to racks really like tubs better.

Any and all suggestions welcome. Thank you!
