Growing Pains!

[Freakie_frog]

As every herper know there comes a point when given enough space and money, sometimes even with out the space an money we tend to out grow our current amenities for me that point can when I realized that I had added 14 snakes in the last 6 months to my collection now some are still baby's and other have yet to arrive but still I started looking at my current space. I'M OUT!! with the three new animals I am getting this coming month and the hatchlings, plus the clutch of spiders I am waiting on I needed to be able to house them. So to answer this problem I had to build a 27 slot 6 qt baby rack and am currently working on a new 10 slot 32 wt rack.. Man they grow like weeds don't they. Before long I'll be needing a new room altogether.

Old 12 slot 6 qt on the left new 27 slot on the right

Nice work. It sounds like it's time for you to buy a ladder and start working on some 96" high racks.

Edit: I'm a little late again.

Hey Ed, what did you use to build the 27-slot 6qt rack? I see melamine shelves, but what size wood for the sides? I have 12 that should be hatching soon and more on the way(Go Poss Het hypo girl!).
