seems like it would be a pain as far as humidity..........i guess you could just tape up plastic or something but i personally prob wouldn't get it unless you have a room devoted to reps & the room is kept at a good humidity

I wouldn't. You can't maintain temps, you can't maintain humidity, the zippers are not escape proof and you can have the issue of nose rub on the mess.

Haven't we warned you about tampering with the structure of a chaotic system?

A co-worker of my wife's was using one for a young BP. My wife strongly encouraged her to switch to anything else, but she wouldn't. She mentioned the snake regularly in casual conversation for a few weeks. Later she told my wife the snake got out and they were having trouble finding it. She hasn't mentioned it again. Our assumption is that the snake is now dead and the woman does not want to talk about it. We're in AZ, very low ambient humidity and have observed our BP's drinking water every evening when they become active. A small snake would probably die of dehydration within a few weeks. The design does not seem desirable regarding serpent escape prevention or BP husbandry needs.

I just thought it would be an easy way to enlarge my BP's cage ...
