New breeding rack

[DecoGeckos]

I finally got my new rack built, and thought I'd share it with everyone on here, as I know some of the "newbies" (always hated that word, but for lack of a better one...) don't quite understand what a rack system is.

It stands 80.5" tall, and 46" wide. We used 3/4" birch finish wood, and 1x4 up the sides.

The tubs I got from The Container Store, they are approximately 14.5qts. And the larger, breeding tubs are 30qts. The IRIS tubs are amazing...no weird bottoms to deal with and try to clean, strong and durable.

I'll be running 3" heat tape along the back side of each row.

Heather, nice rack you have there!:blushing: Good job. Should do a sufficient job holding your 1.3 leos! :lol:

Haha! Don't let my husband catch you admiring my rack! ;-) :lol:

Thank you for reminding me I am definitely in need of an update to my leo count in my signature! I have 1.3.2 (last two are likely little girls) plus 2.1 coming to me from an awesome breeder as soon as I get my heat portion of the rack installed today Heck, if I have more room and the cat is misbehaving...:evil:

I have to say, thebeanfarm.com has AWESOME service. I ordered yesterday around 2pm, and received my stuff today before noon. I couldn't believe how quick it was, and I didn't get killed on shipping either.

I'll bet you need a ladder to reach the upper boxes, right?!
Or are you extremely tall??:biggrin:
Anyhow; Looks great!

Grtz,
