Re: Repairing chewed tubs??
We buy those from our feeder supplier, cut out a hole that includes the damaged area, and use them as hides for our larger boas. Our supplier just buys a new tub.

thanks for that idea. My boas are not that big yet.

Thanks, but they are my breeder females, so I cannot really feed them off.

He also is now bolting/screwing cut 2x4s over the holes. They take forever to chew the wood down and then you just replace the wood.
Re: Repairing chewed tubs??
Even if they are your breeders, feed em off. Not a single one of my 60+ rats chew. Not one single tooth mark on any of my tubs.
I often sell off my feeders as pets. None bite, none chew, not kill babies. I can literally keep my babies with all the males with no issues.
Good genes go much further with a colony than good numbers.
I like my Dubstep to go Wop Wop Wop Wop

Yeah, he said that's working well.
