Budget friendly Ball Python cage ($60 set-up)

[MissterDog]

Yeah, I looked at the ones you are using. The tops are too loose in the middle without the straps you mentioned. The top's on the hefties are super stiff. I have used them as stand alones and my racks are designed around them. The smaller ones make great tubs for smaller or young males and they are the same height as the bigger ones, so my racks can hold two of the 40's or three of the smaller ones in a row.

Love Hefty! Currently I just have one to store things in but I was considering it as a potential tub set up for a second snake. I just wasn't sure if there was just enough wiggle space for an escape.

As an alternative, I have this tub brand (mine is 32 qts) reserved for a potential second snake.

Ive been really digging it! Lids are super tight and snug and the larger tub sizes have latches on all sides! I have to use a lot of force to try and pry open the unlatched sides.

Weathertight is also another brand that has the same latch design

Anyone else have experience with these?
