Interesting.
There is another very cheap option to this type of problem and it is offering something to chew own.
A piece of 2 x 4 in their tubs will keep them busy.
Of course this mean that they should not run out of water or food and the tubs should be flat with no edges.

Exactly I keep a a piece of scrap 1x1 in every tub and they gnaw on that. I have never had a chew out (of course now that I said that today one of my tubs will have a nice hole in it will all the rats escaped)

Re: Solution to the chewing problem
Like I mentioned in the post, I provide each bin with assorted chewing sticks. This of course helps as well. This new method is mostly just for the masterminds(Like my guy Rex) who chew their sticks along with everything else, and still have their eyes set on escaping.

Another cheap solution:
Feed off rats that bite things that aren't food!
In all seriousness, this is a good suggestion. I will try with my ferrets who like to chew the wires in my room.

Good to know that works! Hopefully it works equally well on all rats.
Besides bits of wood or chew sticks (rats especially seem to like apple and cherry wood! btw), dog biscuits are a good chew thing. They of course won't last nearly as long as the wood, but just something to add some variety.
Why keep a snake? Why keep any animal? Because you enjoy the animal, find something beautiful and fascinating about it, and it fits seamlessly into your lifestyle.
