Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Natures Spirit Reptiles / Snake Shacks: A+
I worked out a deal with Casey and Darla Hulse from Natures Spirit Reptiles/Snake Shacks ( www.nsreptiles.com) and it went nice and smooth.
I received a 5 slot sweater box rack (heated too) and it is working out just great! I have 5 adult Ball Pythons in the rack and it is the perfect size. I am not trying to sound like a commercial here but I do like to note when I have a good dealing with someone and I got a great product.
I would not hesitate to do business with them again.
Thanks Casey and Darla for a pleasurable experience.

Snake Shacks=Great Racks
Hi, I purchased 6 racks (3 types) in black. After I finally figured out which racks I wanted, I placed an order with Casey. Casey was very patient and very informative. The racks arrived in less than two weeks and were exactly what I was looking for. They probably would have arrived faster if I could have made up my mind.
I will be purchasing more in the near future.
Take Care, Rob

The best customer service around!
I ordered a 3 hole sweater rack for my BP's on Tues. and it arrived today. Through the whole decision making process Casey was patient and replied to emails within an hour of me sending them. I would order from them again without hesitation and would recommend them to anyone. Oh...and the rack is awesome too!!!

Nature's Spirit Snake Shacks
I own two of Casey's Snake Shacks, a three- hole shoebox version and a three-hole sweaterbox version where the box fits the long way so the heat is at the back as opposed to along the side. I can't say enough about the racks. Absolutely no problem with the heating or the design. I am not sure you will find a better rack system for the price ($160-$225).
I am interested in getting one of his racks that holds the 48qt. Sterilite boxes, has anybody purchased one of these? If so, what do you think of them?
You won't find any better people to deal with than Casey and Darla Hulse. If you have the chance, go check out their products and reptiles(I've purchased a beardie, a beautiful ball python, and two cornsnakes from them) at the Michigan Reptile Show in Taylor MI; the Valporaiso show in Valporaiso IN; or the Midwest Reptile Show in Indianapolis, IN. You won't be dissapointed.

48 qt
Hi Larry, One of the six I ordered was a 48qt rack. It's great! I have two male BRB's and a subadult BCI 3' living in it. I just put them in today. My other rack that I made for my Ball Pythons is falling apart after 6 yrs and I'm going to make another one. But after seeing Casey's I'm starting to rethink my decision. My wife saw them all set up and asked if I was sure I wanted to rebuild. She really likes them. If we didn't have a baby on the way(overdue) I'd order 9 more right now. I know what I am asking for for Christmas.LOL
On a side note. Last year I emailed Casey about a 0.1 BRB he was selling. He got right back to me all 30+ times. My computer/ email program would email Casey the same email what seemed like 2-3 times a week. He was very understanding about it. I think after the 5th one most people would start to get annoyed including myself. Not Casey, he was very friendly through out the whole ordeal.
Thanks Casey.
Take Care, Rob

Hey Rob,
Thanks for the input. After you have had it set up for a few days, let me know whether it heats up appropriately. Also, what type of thermostat are you using?
Thanks again,
Larry D. Stassin

Hi Larry, Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. We welcomed a 9lb 6oz baby into the world yesterday. Sheridan Rose and Mom are doing great today.
I have the 48 qt rack on two 1/2 inch pieces of plywood sitting on the floor. The temp in the back where the heat is is 87- 89* and the front of the box comes in between 79-82*. The room I keep them in is usually 79-82*. I use two ESU together in case one screws up. But Ranco, Big Apple or Helix are the top of the line.
Hope this helps I'll be home around 9pm tonight if you have more questions.
Take Care, Rob + Karen

Congratulations Rob and Karen,
Being the father of three I know the joy you are now feeling. Your life has just changed for the better. I wish you the best of luck, and thanks again for your info. If you get the chance, listen to the song "Living Proof" by Bruce Springsteen off the "Lucky Town" CD or the latest essentials CD. It is probably the best song about fatherhood that I have ever heard.

Nature spirit racks rock!
I have dealt with Casey with absolutely no problems before, he and Darla are always very approachable and friendly, and this last weekend i bought a 3 hole 32qt tub rack system from him at the Indy show. He was extremely friendly as always, he loves to talk about his products and how he builds them, and is a great guy to deal with!
