Hello Austin!

I always have snakes on the brain...LOL...so any damn time I go to Walmart, Target, Home Depot etc. I check out these sort of bins. (Love the PVC coupler, DISCERN!)

A lot of these bins and drawer sets seem to be made of soft plastic, so please be careful. I don't doubt for a second a hognose could work his way out of the gap at the top (not sure on the exact model you've displayed here). These snakes can work their noses into anything, and they're not afraid to climb. (I always offer substrate but you will always have at least one curious hog checking the surface.)

Also, maybe toying with the idea of back heat vs. belly if you really want to try to use these? My hogs seem to like their belly heat though.

Anyway, I really like your idea. Good luck!

You ever talk to me like that again...and I'll turn your balls into earrings. Understand?

Go for it.
