Plz ask admin to correct your name.

It depends on how long you want to keep the snakes in tubs. 20L Hobby Craft tubs are good enough for about an year of their life. 30 L only has more height so it doesn't help unless your an American and you believe they should stay in tubs their whole life. Don't pick bigger tubs if they have wheels on....

2-3 lines are good enough, 3-5 cm spacing is best.
Humidity is not a big problem. Make airholes like on the pictures of this thread. viewtopic.php?f=95&t=26770
If I'm gonna be an old, lonely man, I'm gonna need a thing, you know, a hook, like that guy on the subway who eats his own face. So I figure I'll be Crazy Man with a Snake, y'know. Crazy Snake Man. And I'll get more snakes, call them my babies, kids won't walk past my place, they will run. "Run away from Crazy Snake Man, " they'll shout!”
