So far I have had one escape from the rack and it was my fault. I purchased a 50/50 Cal King and I drilled the holes in the bin too big. The little fella forced his way out through the hole. He was lost for a few days. We finally found him and placed him in a different bin in the same rack. He has never gotten out again.

He didn't have a name when this happened. After we got him back we called him "Scout" since he scouted out the house.

Apparently I need to take a trip to Ikea haha

I wish I had time and money to go crazy on a lot of snakes. Its hard enough to go on vacation without worrying about these 3! How much do you all think that impacts your heating and cooling in your home? That looks like it could get toasty after a while.

Here's my "room" its actually just my living room next to our sofa so we can watch them, them us, and the people across our apartment complex can see them through our windows. The red glow at night im sure makes it look like we've got a meth lab going on in here.

My collection is far smaller than most peoples' here but still! a collection it is

Thumbs up for small but still awesome, and color change led's from Ikea <3

Great set-up! Very clean looking. If I had room in the living room, I'd display a couple even though tanks are a PITA to clean.

Thanks Nanci, I think I've read that, but I'll go look again. I think I know the general plan.

Always MELT holes in your tubs/bins with a soldering iron, clean and small.

My RBI rack seems a little loose too, but just hatched babies can't get out.
