If you're starting off with babies, you could use the Sterilite 6 quart boxes. I use the latch boxes because the lids are more rigid and there's less chance of escapes. Item 1882 is perfect for babies.

For snakes longer than 16", I'd suggest the 35 quart tubs, like item 1886.

If you end up with a large snake I'd go with the 66 or 74 quart boxes like item# 1995 or 1996

of course you'll need to make some ventilation holes in the sides with a soldering iron or a wood burning tool.

use a setup similar to a cornsnake. Aspen substrate. heat pad under one end, water bowl large enough for the snake to soak and hide boxes.
