Can an adult hognose be kept in a 15qt sterilite?

But for the price of those boxes, I don't see why it is unreasonable to put them in something larger.

Thank you. About how large do they get? I'm thinking of buying a rack that has a combination of 15qt and 32qt sterilites. I'm trying to find snakes that could comfortably live in the 15qts.
Thanks again.

If Sterilites are like Rubbermaids, the 32s can fit in the same rack as the 15s, provided the rack is wide enough. I just don't think that you can provide the proper thermo / moisture gradients in such a small container. That is the benefit to larger containers. I only use the smaller shoe boxes for juveniles, and that is only because the smaller boxes fit in some left over space that I can't fit the larger boxes.
