    They look real nice Pit! What are you using for your dividers and looks like you use lids on your tubs?

    I keep every snake in a 41-qt tub. Up to about 1000 grams they get 2 hides. Over that they get 1 hide. I've noticed if I put the hide on the heat on feeding day, it stays there for 2-3 days and then the snake pushes it off the heat tape - but it still gets used.

    Thanks. So I guess a snake of about 2000-2500gr is ok in a 41 qt tub?

    Re: Snake Rack Accessories

    while feeding in the tubs do you take everything out so there is enough rom for the snake to catch the prey?

    I take out any hides the snake isn't using. I've considered also removing the water bowls after finding rat turds in them a few times.

    Sorry i missed a question.
    I clean and feed the same day so there is nothing in the tub but the snake and food at that time.
