3rd pic down- what brand box is that? Looks good, and how easy or not does the lid come off? Vendor and $?

All pictures show the same small Exo Terra Breeding Box (8" x 8" x 5.5"). (I don't usually remove the entire lid, although it comes off fairly easily. Normally I just used the top access hatch and/or feeding hatch for maintenance and feeding.) They used to be cheaper, but they're currently running $15-$20.

I have those! I thought you found a new container I haven’t seen before, all excited for nothing
