Big enough to give birth in, but crowded when the babies get a bit of size. I'd go bigger. They don't need height as much as width, floor space.

Re: Birthing tubs
I use concrete mixing tubs from Homedepot as birting and grow out tubs they are cheap and easy to clean :)

Why not just leave them in the bigger tubs then?

I use the 20qt tubs in my momma racks and as long as you feed off some when they hit the fuzzy size then the tubs do not become over crowded.
I find the babies we pull from the momma tubs are bigger than the same age babies we leave in the colony with adults. http://i968.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/PICT4876.jpg
