Project I am Planning...

So, I will be building a rack to house the following snakes within about a year or so:

Ball Python x2
Dumeril Boa
Irian Jaya Jungle Carpet Python
Corn Snake
Red Tail Boa

My question is, assuming these are all females, what size tubs should I be getting for each? For the Dumeril Boa, IJ, and Red Tail I was thinking the christmas tree bins that Iris makes. But for the ball python, and corn snake I am reading a whole lot of conflicting information. Can anyone help me out with this information?

I wouldn't rack an IJ or red tail boa. not enough height to climb.

You aren't planning to rack all of these together are you?
If so I'd be concerned since each species has different space and temp requirements

Each shelf could have a different heat source.

Re: Project I am Planning...

I was planning on racking them all together, and I meant to say for the IJ and Red Tail, I have a custom enclosure planned, and yes, I was planning on racking them all together. This is a completely custom project and basically I'm thinking having the Red Tail and IJ on one side, and the BP's mad corn on the other... Not 100% set on that yet. Like I said this is about a year off, and I just want to get everything planned out, so I know what I am doing way before.

Re: Project I am Planning...

Ok, so I did this in about 5 minutes on paint, but just so you can get an idea... This is what I am thinking, I just need measurements so I can actually get some pencil and paper to figure this out. Can anyone give me the dimensions I need? Or direct me to a site that will be helpful in getting this information?

Thats the link for my picture... On dropbox and for some reason it wont show in the post
