I wouldn't keep them in those 'chinese containers' 'But they would most certainly work for a little while. I've got yearlings in 5L still.

They're only small snakes so they will be fine in 5L for atleast the first year, depending on how much you feed them. But I've also allready got yearlings into 10L and some are ready for their adult tubs.

If you're just keeping the hatchies until they're eating fine and able to be sold technically a 'chinese container' would work.
I've seen it done with carpets, (a friend got more hatchies then he could fit in his rack so he put some into them and they worked fine until the snakes were sold.
