Homemade rack - advice and comments?

[blk02ssmonte]

I would try to move the levels closer so there won't be any escapes. Those lids don't lock very well on the sides.

On another note BCR229 didn't mean not to get more snakes she was just making sure you can be a responsible owner and not get more animals than you can take care of. Some people buy animals and have no clue and or the means to care for them.

I know, which is why I tried to keep my response from being too snarky. It's just frustrating when people act judgy about someone's animal husbandry. Generally speaking, most people generally want what is best for their animals, it's why they seek out advice and opinions on here and share their experiences.

When I first adopted my dog someone told me if I wasn't going to feed him top of the line, grainfree/raw diet than I didn't deserve to have a dog. Not everyone can afford top of the line racks, or science diet dog food, but it is possible to raise healthy, happy and well cared for animals on a budget without sacrificing their quality of life. It just might take a little more time and effort.

Having a pet or pets is a big commitment - both financial and timewise, however for all of us animal lovers, we find a way to make it work

I actually have that same type storage shelf that I got from Lowes, though mines 48x72 I think. I cut the top corner things to make it sit lower so I could have the top tank within eye level though.

EDIT:
I thought I edited this to add, but must of not hit save.

Enclosing the sides/back will help raise the ambient temperature, and those lids don't sit very secure so if you're snake pushes up they can potentially escape, so I would figure out a way to make that system more secure.

The comment she made wasnt really her place to make. That to me is like a holier than thou kind of thing. Some advice people should keep to themselves unless it is sought by the person you are offering it to. My personal opinion
