I am assuming you mean how to house alot of snakes individually. Most breeders don't recommend housing multiple snakes in the same cage, except when breeding. People with alot of snakes typically house them in rack type systems. The sizes of the containers for each snake will vary depending on size of the snake. Not sure on the exact sizes of cage, I am sure other breeders will post the sizes they use. You can also check out the various rack producers websites. Most make racks for rodents but some also have racks for snakes and other reptiles. Cagebydesign, KustomCages and others.

There are some great pictures of racks people have made themselves posted in the forum below. I have also included the link.
