truthsdeceit - Thanks a lot for that how-to! I do have stand alone tubs with lids, which is why I asked. I just have to get some 1/2" wire (only have 1/4" in the place) and then I'll try it out.

As for fancy markings, I wish I could find some brindles. I have 2 groups of 1.2 - one has a satin silver male and two satin gold females, the other has a pinto male (i.e. black and white patches) with a cream gold female and an albino female. I get some interesting patterns and colors, but I like mixed patterns like brindle the best.
