These are all such wonderful ideas. I really like this forum since I can talk with so many herp lovers and everyone is so willing to share such excellent knowledge. Fresh change

I appreciate your help guys! I will definitely get some binder clips. My ball likes to try and escape from her mesh top sometimes, but these little boas are SO strong already, on top of these tubs being a little flimsy.

Nightrainfalls, I never thought about using an aquarium heater, but that is really cool. I'll have to give it a shot when it starts cooling down out here again. I just got them where they need to be with the room temp and belly heat. Plus they're getting a good light cycle out of a small lamp with a regular daylight flourecent bulb.

Artgecko, I'm pretty tiny too! My ball is in a 45 gallon right now and boy that thing is ridiculously heavy. Takes two grown men to help me move it when I need to clean and disinfect it. I already love these tubs so much more. Light, comfortable for the snakes, temps and humidity are easier to manage. They're gonna grow out of them soon though. I like your heated room setup too. When we have more space I'll be able to do that for sure.

And Sauzo, hogs are BURSTING with personality! I posted a few picture of my little Kevin bacon yesterday. They're pretty bad, but hey, pictures are pictures! And thank you for reccomemding animal plastics PVC's. I looked at them, and the prices are definitely not bad. They don't look ridiculously heavy either. I'll have to look into them more seriously when these guys get a little bit bigger.

Again, thank you all for being so helpful. Your tips mean so much to me
