Mine are in 4 1/2 x 2 foot cages, christmas tree tubs, the height part they don't need but I couldn't find any shorter. But mine aren't borneo's but you get the idea...

No not yet, I want to make one that slides out sideways since I have limited space, spring project this year....

The Ap 10t's seem to be where it's at adult bloods. I am going to bring home a couple after the holidays. They stack too!!

I'm a devout FB keeper. I like the size and ventilation. Plus, if you have any that are pretty 'angry' it's MUCH easier to get them out of these drawers than with front load cages in my experience (I used to have 6' x 2' wooden cages for them). I don't use mulch anymore though... now just newspaper, large water bowl and cement trough hide boxes. I usually have a small 'flood' once a week to saturate the whole cage. The good thing about the FB racks for me: I have three of the 'Jumbo' (4' x 30") in my snake room, so I get to keep 18 adults! :)

This gal is just over 6 feet and around 25 pounds. She's going to be 12 years old pretty soon:

25lbs is one big girl!!!! I think that big yellow male I posted was around the 15lb mark before he left. These animals are amazing. No other snake that I have seen can take one meal and turn it into as much growth as a blood. Anyone else got some real beefy ones out there?

I have one I made out of 24" hollow core doors for my womas and black pines. They slide out sideways and it works great! Its not the prettiest thing in the world but its functional. Easy to make too!
