if I may, The drawer cages, were very much like many steps I instigated. At the time, others thought fought tooth and claw. But a few keepers, worked them.

What occurred was important and interesting, husbandry took a giant step. It was not that the drawer cages were the giant step. They were a stimulus that caused what your doing now. The start of rack system. Immediately after the drawer cages were know, the first racks of sweater boxes took place. And the rest is history.

The point is, for commercial breeders, rack systems are mandatory. And without question, no fun, and do not teach the keeper. The keeper must know, THE RECIPE. With other types of cages, the snakes are enjoyable and teach us about them. But we do have to be fluid and add and play and change. A base recipe, plus the ability to express many areas of snake life and behavior. But we keepers, must change the conditions, if we want to see more. Sorry for the rant.
