Question for those who you barren tubs

[Jmarshall]

I don't have a bone in this potential debate whatsoever, but I was watching a video the other day that contrasted bare bones tubs with decorated ones (let's just say BHB did not come out looking so great). Snake Discovery on YouTube has some awesome examples of how to make tubs and/or rack systems work in ways that are more enriching for snakes. It seems like it's possible to have the best of both worlds if you need the space saving a rack offers but still want some enrichment.

Yes! I really enjoy snakediscoveries tub set ups. I think they do provide more enrichment for the animals and it cant do anything but help the animals. I just fear that reptiles get labeled as "simple" and are given the cheapest most convenient set up for the keepers without the animals best interest in mind. That website and those studies were the most thorough i've seen on the subject.
