Heterodon is right, they are prone to cracking at the ends. If you use yours for fieldwork as I do wrap some duct tape around the ends and that will keep them from splitting or cracking. Only the larger ones need to be wrapped up as they take the most abuse in the field/jeep. They do not break when you are actually using them, just when transporting them. Also the duct tape gives you a little more grip on the tubes.

may be good for husbandry, but stink for fieldwork

I've been wanting to get this off my chest for some time. I considered writing a letter to the company, but this way I'll be able to inform possible costomers. These tubes really suck for fieldwork. I've gone through two sets (very pricey for cheap, undurable plastic!) and I have to duct tape the red endcaps back on constantly (and have lost all of them as of this week). The tubes break easily and fray on the ends. They are not durable and will not withstand much banging. I have to carry the battered remains of my set around with my finger in the smallest tube to keep from losing the rest. I've used them to capture over 300 snakes for my grad work, and I am not happy with them. They'd be fine for herpetoculturalists, I suppose.

I have only had them a month or so, but they have already been well worth the money. Had to remove an eyecap on my male Osage Copperhead, today. Also, used on my male Southern. Being a beginning "hot" keeper, they make things much safer for me, and I am sure everyone else.

The restraining tubes are a lifesaver when it comes to working with all types of snakes. From probing to administering medication, the tubes make the job much easier to complete. The nice array of sizes fits most of the snakes in my reptile room, from babies to adults.

If only there were larger ones available fot large adult Gaboons, Rattlers and Naja haje species.
Than the tube set would be perfect!

Indispensable!

I like to keep two sets around. One set is at full or half length for elapid tubing - the buggers are fast and can whip right up a tube with amazing speed. The other set is chopped into 6" to 8" lengths for use on vipers. The big heavy bodied vipers can't crawl up a tube as the diameter suitable for their heads is automatically going to be too small for their bodies.
Warning - all sorts of fun can ensue if the viper tries to squeeze farther into the tube anyhow and gets stuck there. Short tubes and long hemostats are my choice for all large bodied viperids.

Tubes are one of those "must have" items. Midwests tubes more than do the job. Durable, light weight and flexible. When you have a sick snake that needs to be medicated, a reluctant feeder or just a retained eye cap you will be glad that you purchased a set of these.
