    Smallest tub for hatchlings

    Whats the smallest quart tub you can put hatchlings in without it being to small? There are some 6qt. ones at the dollar store but they seem to small for me to build a rack for.
    I dont agree with a word your saying but will defend to the death your right to say it

    Re: Smallest tub for hatchlings

    I was under the impression that 6qt tubs were the standard for hatchlings. Anyway i think they would do well in 6qt tubs.
