Tub size (rack setup) for pine and gopher snakes

Tigergenesis · 03-09-04, 06:26 PM

I'm looking at a rack setup with Sterilite 48-quart boxes. The 48-quart boxes are 17" W x 35 " D x 6" H.

Is this size okay or too small for a Southern Pine male? female?

I've never really seen any pits in person (only pictures), but I'm interested in adding a Leucistic Southern Pine and Sonoran Gopher to my collection this year. I was hoping to house them in the rack setup above.

Any thoughts/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Bigger is better with Pits. If they feel too enclosed they will rub their little noses raw from trying to escape.

What size would you recommend for these 2 species of pits?

Thanks.

And is there much difference in size between males and females?
