I've used a 12l rub for my male, he's been in it from 100g and is now 300g, he has only ever missed one feed, so he must be quite content. and it's easy to keep the humidity right.

I crack 50l rubs rift the way thru, but pack them out more for the smaller snakes. That way my rack is uniform and I haven't got a million different rubs lying around!

My bins are all 18x24x6. I built my own rack using heat mats and a thermostat. I keep lids on the bins because my kids handle the snakes, and the last thing I need is an escape. I will be upsizing as my girls grow. Everyone is below a kilogram, except for my new albino. He seems perfectly content in his bin. I spoke to Mark Mandic (Markus Jayne) about hides, and he doesn't use any. I provide one per bin, they are inherently private when racked.

Ive just found out the measurements tine to get the drawing book out

That makes thing slightly easier, If I convert to rubs I'll be trying to build my own rack there are lots of guides out there and I think it could be cheaper on the electric especially if I go the heated cables route,

What are the dimensions of the above rubs/tubs

I didn't bother with a middle tbh with royals the large ones enjoy a slightly too small RUB anyway and when it does get a bit of a joke they move to a slightly too big one either extreme doesn't cause too much stress in my opinion and it's only for a very short time.

And thank you

Anything for in the middle ?

Its not a RUB (brand name) but Wilko's do a nice sized 62ltr one for a tenner - here's a pic of mine set up:

I use 12lt for the small ones and then 50ltr for adults :)
