Growing mice and rats without climate control
How should one grow rodents outside in a shed or workshop? I want to rent a place that has an outside workshop but no power outlets. It would get below freezing in the winter and hot and humid in the summer. How do others who have shed racks deal with temperature?

The successful ones move indoors.
The others tell stories about how hard it was to raise rats.

what temperatures should the room or cages be between? 60-80?

With temps below freezing and high temps during the summer you will not be successful
Your choices: Keep them indoor or install electricity in that shed.
High 60’s low 70’s is what you need to strive for.
