[QUOTE="Synapze, post: 334005, member: 10818"] 2 gallon treat containers work great with a few modifications. I've raised many large species in containers like these. Eat or dump out the treats, cut a large ventilation hole in the lid and glue screen mesh to prevent escapees (also provides a safe molting surface), drill small holes near the bottom for cross ventilation, or use a vent insert... they cost a couple of bucks on eBay. Throw in some substrate or just use paper towel material. Total cost approximately $5-$6. Also, very eco-friendly. Not as aesthetically pleasing as a manufactured enclosure, but if you're keeping that many large adults, it's a very economical way to house them. I've made 10 of these now and they work great.
