I keep my rubber boas in 6qt and 16qt plastic shoe box type enclosures. Some are within a custom made rack, and the lids ARE used. The others are stacked and weighted down. Lids need to fit tight... Also, don't make the ventilation holes too large!



Make sure you buy captive bred rubbers. In my experience they make much better captives...



Best of luck,

Chris
