    Default Grow Out Rack for feeders

    The picture below is a grow out rack that I made for my feeders.
    The tubs are the ribbed kind from Lowes. Which was a bad idea because the rats chewed through.
    I have since switched to the kind from Home Depot. They are smooth and therefore does not get chewed.

    your main breeder rack i have one just like it and i love it other than the top racks are way too high for me to reach... but i dig the breed out rack... i need to build something... i recently put the ratties in tubs w/ screen lids... its a good time... anyway rats are beginning to be a pain in the butt!

    Gnat, the tubs for the grow out rack are bigger than the breeding tub. My home depot kept them stored up on a high shelf in the cement section. it is definitely getting some use.

    txrepgirl, I only had escapes when I would turn my back to grab something and one would get curious and wonder out. I remedied that situation by having my kids stand next to me and keep an eye out.
