Maybe its me, but I want to know (if at all possible) that my snakes can full extend themselves if they choose to?

The thought of the snake being stuck where it cant even fully extend its body...bothers me.

Whats the point of the hide if your making the whole encloser a hide box?

I use a 55 gallon display tank in my living room, and the tubs in my rack are very big also..like 48"x18"x9" and almost all of my snakes are awesome eaters,or I know their personalities and how to get the few picky ones to eat.

I keep less animals due to the extra space these setups require, and breed only a few every year for my own enjoyment.

I think some people (not everyone) go with the small bins to accomidate volume. There your snakes do as you please, but I see nothing wrong with a larger, more natural enclosure.

The snakes hide makes him feel safe.
