does anyone know where to buy plastic storage boxes with clip on lids suitable for housing snakes.
most of the ones i've come across have real poor fitting lids or the tupperware type which snap on and are a bitch to get off.

there is an INSTYLE shop in a retail park near me who had lots of tupperware type boxes ..
im sure its a national company . not sure ive spelt it right tho
but they had some that had a flip type locking device . didnt have too good a look though so not sure how suitable they are .
ikea also do a type that can be incorporated into a home made racking system

RUBs are fine for grown-on snakes (colubrids) or bigger but not for hatchlings as there is a gap between base and lid through which small snakes can escape or get trapped. Don't risk it.
