What size tubs for adults?

island_doc Feb 27, 2006 08:17 PM

For those of you who use racks for your adults what size tubs do you use? I'm going to build a rack to house 10-12 adult balls and would like to know what size most people use for their adults. thanks

Several rack builders sell Ball racks now and they all seem to have a 34 inch by 16 (I think) by 6". This is consitent with recommendations for Ball Python min tank sizes which asks for a 36 inch bottom.

Iris CB70's are good too. You can get those from Office Depot online. A good rule of thumb for terrestial(sp?) snakes is length plus width should be equal to or more than the length of the snake.
