rubbermaids and what species???

[yankeefoxtrot]

I would like to know what species work well in rubbermaids and what prefer other housing. I have 1.1 BCI, 1.0 hondu milk tange phase and 1.0 corn snake regular. Whitch of these species, if any, would be able to happily be housed in a rubbermaid??

You can house pretty much any species in a rubbermaid. Currently we have our blood python, 1.1 mexican kings, and a burmese python in appropriate sized rubbermades.

As long as you don't need overhead heat/light you can run heat tape or the like underneath them.

For overhead UV Light things get a little more complicated. I would suggest using a florecent type bulb due to space/heating conserns.
You can cut a hole in the lid of the rubbermaid and cover the hole with hardware cloth to provide access for light.

Snakes don't need to have any special light so you don't have to worry about it for snakes.
