    Good tub for young bp?

    Does anybody know a good specific tub I can order for my bp? He's about 4 months old and about 16 inches long. I do not use rack systems. Thanks.
    For every 15-foot python out in the Everglades, there are thousands of species of clams, trees, cats, grasses and birds that are wrecking just as much havoc across the globe. So, for all the headaches the snakes are causing, I at least applaud them for being scary enough to get people's attention.

    Anything from about 6 to 9 quarts will be fine for a baby, but you're gonna need to move up to a 15 or so soon. They seem to do better in smaller enclosures.

    Can you recommend any specific tubs I can go buy?

    Walmart has 6qt shoebox tubs and 16qts both of which are sterilite tubs. Walmart has a huge selection (my walmart does anyways) of tubs to choose from.

    Not for a baby they're not. Of course it can work, but it's not ideal for a baby. You can go just about anywhere and get tubs. If you don't have a rack to put it in, just go out and find one of the appropriate size you like and use that.

    Don't over think this Just go to target or walmart or anywhere that has organizing tubs. Look at the label and look for a tub that has around a 15qt capacity and is about 6" tall.

    My babies (56-116g) are all in 6 qt showboxes from walmart and I have one at just over 400g that I think is in a 15 qt and they're all doing great.
