 |
I'm getting ready to buy my rack it's the Iris Sweaterbox 32qt 4tubs. I was thinking if I purchased this rack and used the dividers I could keep 4 hatchlings or yearlings in these until they out grow them and I could remove the dividers and and keep one snake per tub if that makes sense. I just hate spend 3 or 4 hundred dollars on a hatchling rack and then have to turn around in a year two and purchased the adult rack. I sound cheap I know lol but I wanted to see if anyone had any experience with these and how they work.

I have the ones with the dividers. I used them for the smaller snakes that I had gotten from the show and needed to quarantine. They work swell for hatchlings ( I have used it for the same purpose also)..the only complaint that I had was the hatchlings doing their business on the wood and not being able to cover the wood efficiently with paper so that they couldn't do that (but then, I put the paper on the whole bottom and then put the divider on top of that, instead of papering each part individually).
You don't sound "Cheap" you sound "Thrifty!"

Great thanks i'll have to order some of those with the rack. Did the ones you had come out of the tub? These are removable and I thought about them doing there business in there and I figured I would just remove them and clean accordingly. I'm assuming there water resistant. The web-site that has them even has cleaning instructions for these on the site. I don't quite understand the solicitation rules on the forum so I don't want to accidently advertise someone elses site. lol

Yes, mine are removable also and water resistant. But like sterlite, the poop is hard to clean off...(I hated having to take them out to clean the tubs..but that's me being lazy!)
We can post links to merchandise, equipment supplies for snakes...BUT not if the site is also selling snakes. You can post a picture of what you are talking about if the site also sells snakes..but not the site itself. Hope this helped.
