If it is in a rack system, you may not need any holes (depending on how tight the tolerances are). Otherwise, I'd go with a dozen or so 3/8 in holes (give or take a handful)....

If condensation builds up really fast on all four sides of the tub, you have too few, drill a few more. However... Depending on where you live, you might end up with condensation on the side with the waterbowl no matter what. I have 5 holes on each long side of my 32 qt and 4 on the front. I also live in a very dry area, so I don't put too many in because it tends to dry out too much if I do.
Just add one hole at a time until you get it right.

I generally put the air holes one and a half in. apart down both sides and four on each end and four to six in the lid .and what Jinny said about the contention build up is partly true , it depends on were your water bowl is in relation to your heat sores . Thanks David of DS Reptile Rescue
