    Re: ditching the terrarium

    I am thinking about ditching this setup for future snakes and going tubs; what would be the correct QT sizes for hatchlings-adults. Any charts out there?

    Construction looks simple enough with plastic shelves though, i suppose i could go full custom and just build the shelving myself.
    What I do...

    Hatchlings - 6qt - (move them up to a 15qt once they outgrow the 6qt)
    Adult males - 32qt
    Adult females - 41qt


    edit: not really a chart, but animalplastics groups their racks by age of snake...i.e, hatchling, juvenile/hatchling, adult, etc, and includes recommended tub sizes...
