so i am getting rid of all my snake cages--- i dont have room to have nice cages so im moving EVERYTHING to racks, except Bearded Draong, and Sulcata Tort- (maybe my corn snake)

but i am wondering what an appropriate tub size would be for a BRB (f) and a RTB (not relaly a RTB, but it is what it was sold to me as) would be. those are the only 2 boas i have so i hope i can build something like 4x2x4 for the tubs (like a rack)

let me know if you guys can find decent tubs for larger sized boa i have had no luck.

Finding out dimensions tomorrow, it's from a guy on craigslist who said he spent $220 on it.

Christmas tree totes are a pretty good size, never seen them before

You can always make your own separator and use it for two boas.

nah, for boas i always think bigger is a little better, these tubs will be for a female Brazilian Rainbow Boa, and a RTB (not sure bcc, bci or what, just sold as rtb)

Post a picture, it's not super hard to figure out if it's BCC or BCI

I want to say BCC because of the narrow head but the saddles don't really look BCC. I'm going to eat my words on this one, I can't tell.. lol

well that is what i will go with lol. maybe i should start a thread about it and find out for sure, since one does get bigger than the other.

BCC is the bigger snake but BCI grows faster.

It is nearly impossible to tell a bcc from a bci because of all of the cross breeding and hybridization. You will never know for certain unless you know the lineage. To say other wise is foolish and border line asinine.

Btw, just bought my Christmas Tree Tote from Walmart for like $30 I think. I like the for reptile keeping/ breeding! Tough plastic, can see in and out pretty well, not too expensive, and BIG.

I use one to breed blue tongues in and for mothers to give birth in. And my baby sulcata tortoise lives in one and it's working out great for him :)

i found 74qt's for $15 each, (they were originally like $35) so im happy with them, they are only 44''x?x7 or something like that, don't know exactly because they are in the snake room ATM, but way bigger than a 41 qt.

looks like a fine line boa like Jeff ronnes but I'd being willing to bet there's bcc in that boa by saddles and head alone very very pretty either way
