Is this a good tub for a juvenile Ball Python?

[Trackstrong83]

Hey everybody, I just got this drawer tub at Walmart so I just want some feedback for it. It's the only one that was of decent size since Walmart was out of smaller tubs at the moment. Just wanna know if it will be easy to heat/maintain. I know ill have to rig it up a little in thr back for the heat pad but nothing serious. I'm just looking for some input from tub users, I only got this thing for 8 bucks so it's no biggie taking it back and getting a new one.

Im not sure how well those would work? I havent seen many people using them and one person who Im close with decided to just buy the single locking tubs she couldnt stand using them

I wouldnt house my snakes in one. Ive heard of people trying to use those before and I believe they said they are not very escape proof.

No they are terrible to try and house any snakes in. Very flexible and allows for escapes very easily.

If you want to play hide n seek with your snakes those are great.

They have some great tubs that have pretty strong locking lids. The small ones where clear tubs with brown tops at 4 gallon size. I had my pastel in one for a while. No chase of escape in this one because the lid secures pretty tightly on it. Here is a link.. I think it was about 6-7 bucks individually.
