Thanks for the help... I live in South Florida and mainly keep chameleons and leopard geckos.. I have breed both before with great success but never seem to be able to get snakes to produce.. Living in Florida my Leopard Geckos are able to live in my screened in back porch year round except for the few days a year it gets cold here.. Why I have never realy had to heat enclosures.. But with these snakes I am keeping them inside because I am investing so much.. I was thinking of going with the glass tank but the screen on the top will cause to much airflow I think in my house with the AC. My question with the rubbermaids/sterilite containers is.. 1. how much ventilation is required.. With a water bowl inside the container even with airholes wouldnt it cause to much humidity?

For a successful enclosure all I need is the sterilite some heat tape or heatpad hooked to a thermostat I have lots of problems with mulch I think its unsafe for the reptiles I use papertowel.. I have a couple digital thermometers from my incubator... Should be ready to go, can anyone give me a rough estimate on what this is going to cost me??
