Honestly I havent used feed tanks for YEARS and YEARS. I really saw no benefit to it. I saw no behavior difference and with larger bodied pythons it was a pain waiting the 24 hours to allow the rodent to get far enough down. I saw far more regurg from handling too soon. Plus as the collection grew so did the PITA of the feed cages.



However that being said, there are several large rubbermaid types at Walmart that will work.
