Does anyone know of a lidless rack system that's hatchling approved? I want one that is commercially made (because I'm not very good at DIY racks) but I also watch it to be essentially escape proof. I'm not really opposed to a rack that requires lids, but it seems like most commercial racks are lidless. Next season will be my first season breeding corns and I want to have a hatchling rack ordered and on the way by the end of the year.

I was looking into this rack: http://www.reptilebasics.com/interde...or-68-tub-rack Any comments? I've already e-mailed Rich to ask about the gap between the tub and the rack. He replied saying this rack was specifically designed for small hatchlings like that. His gaps on the sweaterbox and CB-70 rack (I use these for my ball pythons and adult corns) are very, very minimal. My only other concern is that the tubs in this rack are very small and the corns will probably outgrow them in a few months. HOPEFULLY I won't have many babies by then but I'll have a back-up rack with 6qt tubs just in case.

I've also looked into getting a custom made rack from Herptastic Reptiles (a facebook-based company). Chris just came out with a new line of XPVC racks and I had him quote me on building a 60 tub rack out of these containers for tubs ( http://dgc.imageg.net/graphics/produ...185238v380.jpg ). It's actually cheaper than the 68-tub RBI rack. However, with both racks, I don't want to order a rack and it not be tight enough to prevent escapes.

Do you think either of those options would work? Or do you suggest something completely different. I'm really open to options, but I would rather stick to commercially made and steer clear of melamine/wood-based racks. I like the look of XPVC and the fact that they hold heat well and are light weight. Not to mention, it pleases the slightly OCD part of me that likes all my racks to "match". I'm not sure if there is an plastics place in Houston, TX were I can get sheets of XPVC. On top of that...I'm not sure I'm handy enough to know how to drill in plastic. Worst case, I build my own melamine rack. I'm just trying to keep things nice and pretty.
