    Do you have a thread with your snakes, or did I miss them in here?

    Wow, how have I not come across this thread!? This is so cool to see, and I love everything about it. This is how it's done, and if I ever build a rat room, I'm totally coming back to this thread.

    For one, this is awesome! #RatRoomGoals right here. Seriously. Two - those rat racks are awesome! Much more sturdy and efficient looking than just about every rat rack build I've run across. Where's the build thread for them? :confuse:
    Love the room! Want one of my own!

    I have random threads but I havn't posted updated pictures in a long time. I really need to take a day and get the collection, perhaps sometime after this breeding season.

    I've built a few rat racks, each one get better/more convenient, but this is the most recent one. I think I might attempt a metal one next time. Still need to find myself a deal on a welder.

    Figure I'd share a few thoughts since its been over a year.

    Watering system works like a charm. Filling up water buckets without a hose is awesome. I got rid of the dehumidifier. Once production ramped up it couldn't keep up. So now the exhaust fan is on 24/7. Air flow is the only way to keep it manageable. I also unplugged the carbon fan inside the room as it really didn't do much. Built a few grow out racks for the rats. Been working pretty good so far.

    Thanks, If you already have a utility sink with room on both sides, could be an easy swap out and you can have your own. :) just dont use the garbage faucet that comes with it. Ive bought 2, one for rodents and one for the snake room and they were both leaky junk. http://www.homedepot.com/p/BigTub-Ut...28CF/203155730

    Thanks for the info!
    My reptile room has an attached *extremely small* bath (shower, kit sink, toilet). I would love to replace the sink with a large one, but I don't think my husband would be on the same page lol.

    I'm hoping to setup a shed with electric, water, etc. in the future, so I may look into this at that point.

    This entire thread is excellent and motivational. Well done all around. Thank you for taking the time over the course of the build to post.
