does anyone know of any bins that are bigger than the 72 qt sterilite bins? i have a few big boas and a new albino retic.
really want somethin that will give them plenty of space.
if anyone knows where i can find some please let me know.
thanks
 
The 40gallon rubbermaids are i think a bit shorter but but wider and taller
 
yea tall is pointless when your talking about bins for racks. it makes heating alot harder and has alot of wasted space.
i guess i could cut them shorter but that would most likely be a disaster.
is that a cal king masa?
 
Yeah I know that it wouldn't be good, I think there are 125 qt's. And yeah thats a cal king :D my feisty little fellow
 
we cant get anything that big over for racks, i suppose unless specially made.

good job too lol or my collection would b huge if i could save that much space!
 
I know walmart carries those giant bins around christmas time for the fake christmas trees. I have seen alot of people use those for big boas
 
ive never seen a bin big enough for the sizes your lookin at for a retic, or even for larger boas. your gonna have to start lookin at custom builds, boaphiles, vision cages, or other things like that specific for the giants.
There is a thread on the dark side that I can link you that is a step by step guide basically to how this guy builds his retic cages.

also...those sterilite tubs are to flimsy(at least all of the ones i have seen), larger snakes will be able to push out of those without having the rack left open at all
 
the 72 quarts hold my 6ft boas but i have 2 that are now 8ft one is a little bigger i really wish i could find a bigger bin. i guess i will be building them out of expanded pvc or acrylic.
oh well.
my collection is gettin to big for cages. i cant even fit them in my sig. i think we are up to 40 snakes. tryin to down size some of the snakes that we dont do much with. cut down to just breeders and just rare stuff.
hey silvias, do you know any company that will sell just there bins?
