mice rack tubs

If I were you I would use the vaness litter pans. When I was using the concrete tubs I had problems with the food because its not easy for those pregnant females to climb upside down. Also mice seem to do better in groups of 1.3 or 1.4 I was keeping 1.8 and all the pinkys would get stuck on the bottom while the fuzzys and hoppers would be on top, which killed alot of pinks because they were neglected.:gj:

I dont know about how many in a tub, but I try to make sure all my females have the babies around the same date, within 2-3 days so there isnt a huge size difference. Also, when the moms get LARGE I start placing food in the container also just so they dont have to worry about jumping to the top. It works good for a small setup.

Oh yeah its fine if your doing a 6 tub rack but when you start doing like 20 tubs its a pain to put new food in there every day.
