Are you planning on adding more ball pythons? Both the racks mentioned are made very well. AP racks are thicker and therefore heavier than a similar-height RBI rack (RBI uses 1/4" thick plastic, AP uses 1/2" I believe.)

My advice is to look for a rack that uses the Iris CB-70 box. This is a larger box very suitable for ball pythons. Browse the classified section (Cages, racks) on kingsnake.com.

Any of the racks on the classifieds are good for your intent, just look for the ones that have the larger box.

Also, depending on your room temps, there is the decision to be made about belly heat or back heat. For a big box like the CB70, I would go belly heat. Good luck.
