Honduran Milksnake Help!

I recently got a make tangerine albino Honduran milk snake. I was wondering what sized tub they would need in a rack system as adults. I have done some research and people have said 28q is fine, but I have also seen people say that is too small and that it is too big ha. It is a male, if that would make a difference. Anyone have experience or opinions on this?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Re: Honduran Milksnake Help!

I would use 41qt tubs. They're not really active in their enclosures, though, so if he doesn't get very big he might be okay in a 28qt. Personally I prefer to give them room to stretch out fully even if I don't see them use the space, though. My girl is in a 55qt tub, just out of convenience because it fits my rack dimensions.

Consider that honduran milks can reach 5 feet. I'd give him a place where he could stretch completely (or almost, at least).
