The reason high end breeders like brian and some of the other top guys keep animals in racks like this is because of the number of animals they have. Its very easy for brian to go into the large snake room and slide a tub open pull the large snake from the tub spray it and clean it and put it right back in. As to where I have 6 foot visions that open in the front I actually have to crawl into my cages when cleaning and scrub against the back walls. Which takes a longer amount of time. Its just when you have the number of animals brian has its alot easier to keep them in racks. It takes me 10-15 minutes to clean on of my racks but I have a stack of 6 foot visions from the floor to the ceiling and it takes me an hour to pull everyone out and clean those things. Ive looked into fb racks for my large snakes but I just dont feel comfortable keeping a large snake in them I like to know mine are locked away and it seems to me that a snake that size could push a rack like that open. I talked with the guy from fb and he is suppose to be sending me pics of someway they lock those things.
BUt regarding the other post. I do believe brian does make a decent living off breeding his reptiles. And im sure he doesnt mind cleaning cages. If he didnt like cleaning cages he wouldnt have thousands of snakes. He does have the luxury though of being able to afford to hire help to clean them. I would of loved to seen when it was just him and lori. I bet they were tired all the time.
