Hey,

My rubbermaid rat breeding tubs are working out just fine. I'm not quite finding the space I need though. Also I've decided to expand on the operation and sell some to some local snake keepers.

I've seen pictures and my plans are to mimic the picture I saw with the wooden frame and the hardware cloth. I recall how frame was built to slide the mixing tubs, which I also plan to copy. If I recall correctly the watering elements are available at www.agselect.com do people recommend I just get a kit, or compile what I need myself? I'm planning on building this rack 4 units across, and 3 units tall so 12 colonies of 1.4.

If anyone has any pointers to mention please do, also pictures are very helpful, as are links!

Thanks to everyone on this forum, you all helped me a lot in the past.
