Love, love, love, love, love the rat rack, don't know why I waited so long to switch!

20 minutes to clean six tubs? What are drinking on the job?!?!:colbert:

LOL, good lord it takes me an hour sometimes more for one rack, 2 cages and some tubs. I have to play with all of them and get easily distracted by their antics. On a motivated day I can do 45 minutes. :)

Well it was a guess - it's pretty fast - I move them all to a holding tub, dump, replace bedding, put rats back in, top off food, refill water bottles, and then onto the next one. I just know it's a LOT faster than having to clean 10 gallon maternity tanks.

Did I mention I love my rat rack?

lol
On a day when I have nothing to do, I could easily spend 2-3 hours cleaning rat tubs!
On a normal cleaning day, 15-20 minutes max for cleaning, filling water bucket, and topping food. I couldn't imagine having a bunch of tanks around for the rats. Racks are the way to go
