Are you planning on keeping 6 in the same RUB? if so then I'd recommend not doing that... :S
If you just meant what size for them individually I can't help you as I always use a faunarium for my young snakes...

I think the length suggestion of two sides of the tub can work even when they're babies? I had bob for a while in his hatchling box and he wasn't even as long as two sides, so it was ample for him.

I used Chinese take-away tubs when mine were little :P (Holes drilled in of course).
The tubs you can buy crickets in at the pet shop work fine to.

Maximum of 1 snake to a tub. If they are hatchlings you can use 1 litre tubs but will need to drill vent holes.
Eventually you will need 6 vivariums set up.
What heating and thermostat arrangements have you made?
