Cheap racks

[Bananapeel]

Hopefully this is in the rules that I can do this.

Just saw that the Reject Shop has plastic tubs from 2 bucks and a tub rack for 35 bucks (5 tubs)

Just thought I'd put this up as it sounded good for herps

Are you talking about the ones that are vertical and just slide in on rails? The only thing I find difficult with these is that you can't really heat them efficently! And the are easy for escaping!!!! Although I use these racks with the larger tubs and modify them and use them as breeding tubs for my mice! Really efficent for that ...Herps not so much

The tubs themselves however are great for herps! They are good for hatchlings if you put them in a heating rack system or on a heat mat. Even the huge tubs can be used to house adult pythons on a rack system. This saves electricity but although I don't find it fair on the snake, I prefer my adults to be in large enclosures with heaps of room to spread out Tubs are great for geckos such as knob tails and other non-climbing species It is cheap and as your herp grows, so do the tubs! They are great until you have to get them in a full size enclosure!!!
All you need to make these tubs efficent for herps are a heat mat and a light globe! And possibly a heat lamp depending on the size

Yeah great for geckos. Knob tails would be good as they only need a heat cord which you can run along the rack. Snakes aren't so great for this I agree. I guess you could easily alter it slightly to suit whatever it's needed for.
