Ok so I had a problem and didn't have enough room for my 7 egg clutch to be housed once they hatch in a couple weeks. So I was gonna spend about 350 bucks on a hatchling Rack. So my mom and I where in my snake room thinking of what to do.
Well I sat on the floor and was pondering building a rack but I wasn't to sure of myself to build it.
Well my big normal female
(who is housed like royalty)
Her critter condo is on top of an ikea baught tv stand.
I was looking at it and realized its the perfect depth, length and made of melanine board!
So I measured and went to walmart to look for tubs!
Found 28 qrt tubs that fit my 2 yearling's and a late 2010 pied (all three between 200-600 grams) perfect!
I had them in glass tanks before with UTH's and simply put another piece of ply wood under them and the heat mats from their old tanks under th ply wood to match up with the tubs.
AND WAM!
A Rack!
Their temps are stable and on the money!
And all in all I only spent about 100 bucks... http://tapatalk.com/mu/6295939d-e72c-7eeb.jpghttp://tapatalk.com/mu/6295939d-e740-5bad.jpg
