Hi! I'm a prospective BP owner looking to really do my research before bringing home my first ball. I've had way too many trips to target over the years and have been taking stock of some of the tub styles/brands they carry. I've been toying in my head recently if the Sterilite three-drawer unit had any merit (with modification, obviously) as a mostly pre-fabricated hatchling rack system? Although you can get it elsewhere cheaper (and most targets sell single drawers, also) the online store has it here.
basically, it's a three-drawer unit that can slide both forward and back (although it comes with little plastic 'stops' so it only opens one way) and has pre-fabricated ventilation on the front and back of each drawer. The handles are actually open, so that would require some modification, but the spacing between drawers is more than enough for a few pieces flexiwatt to provide the UTH. because of the open system in the back running a cord along the track would be a snap.
is this a viable idea? a very simple rack would be easier for my room dimensions than stacked tubs. obviously the rack would only be good for baby/hatchling BPs because of the size, but still... does the idea have any merit?
i didn't see this product mentioned in any existing threads here, but please do excuse me if it's already been posted/suggested.
cheers,
Chris
