How do I heat and/or build multiple snake enclosures?

Question

I am starting to get setup for snake breeding (balls) and I am lost on the process of multi enclosures. It is hard to find information about getting started with them and best practices/equipment to use because most links on google are just people selling them.

I am going to need at least 8 enclosures for the baby snakes and I was wondering if people build their own racks or if they just buy them online? If you build your own do you need a separate thermostat for each or just one thermostat hooked to all the (tape I assume) if it is a multi rack thing. Also should I get heating on all the enclosures or just the back or sides of the rack? Is there a problem with light using the racks?

Answer 1

You can buy snake racks online or you can get them made to order.

You will need a heat mat for each of the enclosures and depending on the snake depends on how big a draw.
