This adult, and all from this group were in a very large rack system (high tubs). The ventilation holes were more than large enough for babies to get through. This was a quarantine rack. I would not have had her in there if I was expecting babies, or I would have taped the vent holes (which is done now by the way, as I have had babies come later).

I love Animal Plastics cages because of where their vent slits are placed and how thin they are. The glass sheets are also very close to where it would be very difficult for anything to slip through.

I do know of baby eyelash vipers in a similar scenario to my tree boas getting through the glass gaps in visions. All of our visions at work have plastic stoppers, and the majority of our venomous are in AP cages or habitat systems.
