    Yeah Tom, that's what I'm using now, I just need a bigger tub, that's still shallow. I'm sick of only being able to put 30-40 mice in the tub, and having to clean them every 3-4 days...
    I found this on YouTube, contacted the guy, but haven't heard back from him yet on where he got the tubs. His comments state that he got them at a restaurant supply, but I haven't had any luck finding anything at all similar. Those are exactly what I'm looking for!!

    Have you gotten any of these yet? Wondering how stout they are.
    Funny thing is, I've been to that site, and about a gazillion others looking for a good bus tub, but never ran across that particular one!

    Thanks man, I appreciate it!

    Mine are on the way. I will let you know:D

    This is also known as the Petmate Value Line litter pan.

    It is really a perfect size for mice. Its about 30% larger than a 10 gallon tank in floor space and its 3.5" tall which is perfect for mice.

    Where can you find these Tom?

    You can google it and click the thing on the left that says "shopping" to find a good deal, but this place has free shipping.

    You can also check out local pet stores to see if anyone can order them or get them for you and you might be able to avoid the shipping.

    They're about 4" wider than the Freedom Breeder or ARS mouse tubs for much less money.

    I finally found the big tubs...
    Made by a company called Carlisle

    http://catalog.carlislefsp.com/stora...1/1064002.html

    Now, I'm on the hunt to find a good deal on them. So far, they're looking to be around $13 each.

    Wow! They have an 18" x 12" x 3.5" tub as well which would be awesome for breeding mice or for rat birthing tubs. I might even start making mouse breeding racks out of these. It looks like I could pick them up in Philadelphia which is literally less than half an hour from me. Sweet!
