    sure you can,I have the same rack and dividers and if you use the right hides, you can fit two hides and a water dish in a divided tub. I can take pictures and show you if you like. You can't keep her in their for long though, you would need to remove the divider after a few months.

    32qt divided in half is fine for one snake that size. you do not need 2 hides in a tub that size. i use 1 hide in my 16qt hatcling rack. anything smaller i do not use hides.

    I have a couple sets of the same racks that I use for males and a couple of my yearlings. I have one divided that has a 450g and the other side has a 550g, they both fit very comfortably. They aren't going to last in them a whole lot longer though, probably 700g at the most imo.

    The pictures are of my 08 male spider who is well over 500 grams. You could get away with keeping a ball in a divider until they are around 600-700 grams. You'll get an idea when to remove the divider when you see the snake trying to look crowded. Those hides are cereal bowls that I got for $1.99 at Target. I just used a Dremel tool to cut the hole. They worked great for me.
