I LOVE Easterns, but Westerns are eaiser to convert to f/t mice. Plus there are more CB Westerns available.

Here is a pic of my new "rack" I set up today. The top two shelves are 27 qt steralite containers, the two big containers are the steralite underbed storage boxes. If you look closely, you can see my Westerns in second underbed. I like my snakes to be able to strech out completely, as you can see in the second picture, they like it as well
