I just put a few in each end but RUBs I have found out don't need any holes adding as there is enough of an air gap round the top.

I'd just like to clarify that Louise is talking about the brand RUBS, not just any plastic box.
I call any plastic box a RUB even though it's not the brand.

Yeah sorry, should have said that.

I would recommend putting air holes in an 'air tight' container

Yeah, I know a few breeders/keeper who keep snakes in them fine without adding air holes.

If your not happy doing that just add a few. It wont hurt
