    Your Colony Number Set Up???
    I just wanted to hear what colony numbers work well for others. Right now I have found that a 1.3 works very well for me. What works well for you? Thanks for the reply. Have a Great 4th of July.:salute:

    1.2 and 1.3 , will be feeding off the 1.2 and replacing with a 1.3 to get more producion, also because they seem to turn their food to dust a lot more than the other group

    A big thank you to all whom have replied. I just wanted to see if anyone had something that was working super well. I'm trying to keep 10 snakes well fed and I fear that my 4 tub rack just may fall short. Only time will tell. Big Shout Out to Snake Doc for helping me get started on this adventure. Thank You.:gj:

    you could do 1.3 groups in 2 or 3 tubs and have one grow out tub
    or fill the rack with breeders and have a couple totes for grow ups

    Right now I have 3 tubs set up as 1.3 and I am feeding from the wean/grow tub. Today I added a 1.2 in a 10gal setting on top of the rack. But I like the way you think. A seperate area for use as a grow tub. THANKS
