How many of you keep hogs? I was thinking of getting a pair at the NARBC in Tinley Park this October. Please post pics of your snakes and their enclosures.
Thanks

Here are a few pics of my hogs...

This is my snake/computer room

I can replace the tubs in the 4 high racks with these larger tubs.

I just built this rack, it will hold 20 small tubs, 15 medium, and 5 large tubs, or a combination as shown in pic.

Here is our pair of Hoggs, since I do not know how to post multiple pics I will post another pic of their enclosures

The middle two enclosures on each side are theirs. The other 4 hold our bp's.

Those cages are nice. I like the natural wood look. How did you seal out the moisture?

Thanks for the tip on posting multiple pics. To answer your question about the tanks, we first used 3 coats of midwax strain (which is 1/2 polyurethane) and then sealed the entire tank again in poly. Just for clean up purposes we sealed the inside bottom of the tank with 3 coats of poly. This may seem a little excessive but I wanted to make sure it sealed well enough since there was going to be so much humidity within the tanks. Thanks for looking and here another pic of my hogg Eos
