    Your MIL is freaking insane, man. Doesn't want to know temps? Humidity? Weights? Wants to feed them mice instead of rats so they'll "stay small"? At this point I'd call legit abuse (both to you AND the animals) :/

    But anyway, a rack system is over kill for one snake, unless you're planning on getting more. They're designed so you can stack multiple tubs in a vertical space, saving room for people who keep more than just a couple. Also tubs are not an automatic fix. You're still going to need the right equipment to read, record and monitor temps and humidity. If she won't let you go out and buy them, try mail ordering from Ebay or Amazon. That wood viv does sound nasty and moldy though. If she won't let you keep it in a straight up plastic sterilite tub, try looking at plastic vivariums. Easier to keep clean than wood, holds heat and humidity better than open top glass aquariums, and displays your snake with a pretty, see-through plexiglass door.
