Nicely done. I use the same setup for my rats and asf's.

Re: new rack (DUW)
It's working great. I re did the food hoppers so they can't get into them and can still be inside the tubs. Used bolts and washers to attach them this time. The weanling tubs have a 2x4 block under the dripper so the water system height isn't an issue. I'm up to 49 rats all together with plenty of room. I'm estimating that I could fit 200 or more easily. The tubs are still huge for the breeder sets. I might move the breeders to a smaller rack and keep this one for grow ups. I'm learning as I go along.
Anyway, this rack is solid and will support more than I need. With the guaranteed sale of at least 4 rats a week to friends, I have the cost covered. I should have done this a while ago. Free snake food rocks. Saves me at least a hundred every month and pays for itself. I'll update pics tomorrow night.
