Could these snake be housed in this rack full grown for breeding:

I would be using the Sterilite #1754 Sweater Box is 161/2" long X 11" Wide X 6 3/8" Tall. As shown here

The choices of colubrids i have picked are mostly small so i'm asking if this would work? I know the Apricot Pueblan Milksnakes,
Striped California Kingsnakes, and the Western Hognoses would be fine but just making sure!

My opinion is that it'd be fine for hogs (although I find my hogs the most active of my colubrids, next to my garters). Ok for most puebs, might be a tad tight for a big adult female. Wouldn't recommend keeping a calking in there for it's lifetime. Young ones maybe but calkings, can and do get bigger than the other species mentioned. My 2 cents.
