Hi all!
What are your favorite Sterilite tubs for hatchings/yearlings? My future corn will have a display cage for it's adult enclosure, but I will likely do a sterilite tub for the hatchling and yearling phases of their life.
Lol I just picked up half a dozen more of those 6-quart ones with the purple latches which you linked from Target. I LOVE those for babies. I do set up my new hatchlings in deli cups until after they've had their first shed and their first couple of meals. After that, into the 6-quart bins they go.
These are definitely my go-to bin until the little ones get into the 30 g range. Target has the best price on these, as well. I've also got quite a few of the purple latched bins in the 15-quart and 66-quart sizes.
The 15-quart ones are also good for babies through yearlings. For these specific items, three 6-qt occupy the same amount of space as two 15-qt bins.

Do you find they are secure enough without needing to add binder clips or similar to the lids?
I do, yes. The smaller sizes are pretty snug. I've not had an escape yet, knock on wood. The large size could possibly be pushed up at the midpoint of the longer sides but I've not had any problems. Here are some pics for relative sizes. (BTW Tulip's bin is bare atm because she was about to lay her second clutch and I wanted to be sure that happened where it was supposed to happen.)
I'm a big fan of these for youngsters. One of the cool features is that the bins have these nifty notches on the short walls, just perfect for holding sticks to climb.
