Also, since those tubs are so high the weanlings will have a difficult time getting to the food and water. Either provide them something to climb on to access the food and water or wean them quick so they don't drain mom of milk.

I bet Mike is wondering when they are gonna start chewing into those tubs. DITCH THE AQUARIUMS MIKE!!!!! USE A RACK THEY ARE A TON EASIER. I haven't had a problem yet. Oh, get an automatic watering system to make your life even easier.

Lol, good luck!

I'm building a rack next weekend that has 1/4 mesh. They drink so little that filling up the water bottle isnt really a problem( yet) Thanks for the post!

I have read about people getting extra large water bottles with nozzels that reach all the way down to allow babies to drink water. I'm not sure how to really get the babies food without giving them something to stand on.
Wouldnt they climb upside down?
