15q tub to big for a hatchling?
I put my 85g Mojave girl in a 15q tub. Is this to big of a tub?

A 15 qt tub should be fine as long as you provide good hides.

I have hatchings in 32q tubs now and raised hatchlings before them in the same tubs. They are all doing great.
Give them hides on each end and a couple more if you would like.

My racks are from boaphile with all sides covered but the front. Are hides still necessary?

For an 85 gram hatchling? I personally think so.

Do you immediately separate the hatchling or keep them together for a little bit? And when do you separate them?

I prefer no hides at all in my tubs, but if a snake is a picky eater I give them one.
