What size tub can a Honduran adult be kept in?

I'm getting a rack with 32qt Sterilites (23.5x11.5x6). Is this too small?

I'm thinking about maybe a Tangerine Honduran.

That size container would be borderline for a full grown six foot monster, best would be anything in the 30'' X 16'' for large females. If you don't plan on breeding, get yourself a male which are usualy smaller.

Thanks guys! I was thinking male too for the same reason - that seems to be why I always go for males, just to be safe.

Totally agree with Marc - too small for a big female but fine for the majority of males. Hondurans are great snakes - you will find it quite a change from your ball python and mex black - but there is nothing quite like a hondo - hope you will share photos when you get yours,
