So just getting going breeding both balls and asfs. Made a snake rack a while ago but didnt post pics. Figured id post them with the grow out rack i just made. In my newly set up snake room. And with it being new. Im still settlig out the hunidity as u can see.
malamine snake rack with my new herpstat 2 running 12inchs of 4inch flex watt per tub. Rubber maid tubs is what i used.
I wanted to be able to quickly remove my shelves to check my flexwatt or if i have to move the rack. So i routered notches that the shelves slide on.
Still need to mount my power bars and clean up the cords
New grow out rack. 3 tubs high with storage underneath.
Lowes "small" mortar tubs.. All i coukd get her in canada.
Built completly out of 2x2s.. Not gonna lie it was a definite spur of the moment rush job. So i only used 1 3inch screw per joint.. Shame shame i know...
I could never understand the space most people place between there rodent tubs. Figured it was for water bottles but i put mine right on top of eachother to save space. I hope i didnt make a grave error.
The 1.4 breeders i put in to check fpr holesrather lose 5 then 50 when these tubs r full. The under tubs have middle supports on the screen to support the tub above.
I sealed off the widow with weather stripping cause our winters get cold and drafty here. I have an oilfield radiator that i hooked up to my herpstat for the ambient room temp. Have it set in on off mode on probe 2 amd it seems to be working great. In the corner is my asf rack that i purchased used for 40 bucks.
Asf grow out again. With the big rubbermaid of hog grower i use.
All in all. The grow out rack cost 65 dollars to buid. 6 dollars for each tub. I used 9 8ft 2x2s one an a half rolls of hardware cloth. And some misc hardware. The bottles came with the used rack i bought.
Figure with the flex watt the snake rack cost just shy of 200.
Not including the humidifier heater or herpstat. The room didnt cost that much.. Besides losing a spare room. Lol
Edited post to finish the right up.
