Years ago, I kept ball pythons, corn snakes, and a few other species. I bred them and housed them in rack systems. After a change in living situation, I could no longer have them and sold my entire collection. I miss breeding snakes so much but the hobby seems oversaturated with breeders and it looks like it would be hard to get back into it. (correct me if I'm wrong though ) I've been out of the hobby for a little over 10 years now.

That said, I work for an animal shelter now. We have a ball python that came to us with two other ball pythons as an abandonment case. They had been kept in broken glass tanks in a shed, with no heat source, since March (we got them in April). Two snakes have found homes (one went to live with my co-worker). I have toyed with the idea of adopting this last ball python. I would love to get back into the hobby but I don't want to go with a rack system anymore. While it saves space, I just like the idea of giving them more living space. But because I used racks in the past, I am completely clueless on other reptile enclosures. Do yall have recommendations on stackable (because I might get a few more snakes......) enclosures that either come with heat, or have spots for heating elements? I've been trying to Google some but I just don't want to end up with something that is overpriced and not worth the money, or potentially something that will be hazardous. I'm also open to the idea of racks that provide more space (I'm looking for roughly a 4x2x2 as an enclosure size, so something similar might work.) I want to be able to provide them hides, climbing surfaces, decor to make them feel more secure, etc and that might not be workable with a rack. But again, correct me if I'm wrong.
