Boa Racks

Im trying to find out how many people would use a boa rack to house adult males and growing females if it could be better priced then buying cages. The tubes would have a 10' perimeter and you could stack them in one piece sections so your rack could grow with your collection. Im going to try to post a poll for this but I've never done that before.

I wouldn't use them for adults myself. Too enclosed, and not enough room for proper exercise. Not to mention, keeping neos in a rack past their 3rd month bothered me when I had to do it. I quickly bought them cages. They need to be able to exercize for proper health.

My $0.02

Hey, if I had some of those, I could get smaller cages, and fit more snakes in my house.

I thinks you can keep males in 3.5 foot tubs in racks all there lives but I would buy cages for the females......

I can see it now. My 8ft+, over 25lb female launching out of a tub at my face during feeding time. Good times, good times.
