    How to get the most cost-effectiveness out of 1 rack?

    Daydreaming about how I could expand with a potential to breed and how I could optimize the cost-effectiveness of 1 rack (e.g. 1 expensive thermostat, and limited space). I was thinking I'd get something like the Animal Plastics economy 10 shelf system, and that the best way to use the space would be to use 4 of the full bays for 1.3 adults, leaving the remaining 6 bays available for 12 x 15 quart tubs to handle up to 12 eggs.

    It seems to me that even if 3 females laid eggs, it's likely that they would not produce more than on average 4 viable babies on average, especially if these are younger females which they would be. For example, maybe a whole clutches goes bad or one doesn't even get pregnant.

    Is this good snake math? Any better ways to do it?
