Tubs size for breeding rats
I am wondering what size of tubs or bins to choose. I am planning on housing 1.3 adult breeder rats in two bins and then I need a couple bins for grow outs. A total of six females for a small breeding colony.
So what size for the adults breeding groups?
What size for grow outs?
How many bins for grow outs?

Yeah I am limited in space. I have a shelving unit where I am going to keep the rats and was toying with the idea of using bins but if I need six total the shelving unit will have to go and I will build a rack.

Re: Tubs size for breeding rats
Thanks guys! At least now I can go and check out the sizes and see what will work best.
If I have six females separated three in each tub will I really need four more tubs for grow outs? Forgive my ignorance. I was thinking two maybe three max.
Two for breeding groups
One for weanlings
One for older more adult size
Maybe on more for future breeders. I may be missing something.
Thanks again for all you advise.
