I have spare tubs ready so I just pull out the dirty tub, put the new one in, transfer snake, and voila! Takes about 20 seconds, although about half the time I let them crawl around on a table that I use if they're awake. I have one pastel male that I got from Adam that always seems to enjoy spending more time outside of his cage. Every time I open it up to check on him, he will crawl out on my arm. He's a pretty funny guy. He's in shed right now and will still peek his head out of his hide to check out what's going on even though he can't see a thing.
