FTW? That's strange. I went to the "Home" page & scrolled down to it. It said "Chest freezer for F/T?". Strange glitch! Anyway, I probably should'a written out "frozen rats" instead of using the shortcut for "frozen thawed".

No, no, you're right, that's really what it says. My brain just keep seeing "Chest freezer FOR THE WIN!"

I bought a holiday 7 cu ft chest freezer from Lowes for my rats. About a month later it died on me when I was out of town. Came back home and went to get some rats and they were all half thawed. $400+ worth of rats down the tube. I returned it and got a 5 cu ft model. It's been going well so far (about a month and a half). Even withstood the light gnawing of an escapee! Needless to say I stuck a thermometer in there and check the temperatures daily. Don't want another $400 loss if I can help it. Chest freezers are nice, but you gotta keep your eye on them if you get a bargain brand...

Do chest freezers need a water line or just a wall socket?

Just the wall socket.

Oh, I get it!
