Hey Mike,

Here's a little tip for you. I usually have my tubs shimmed up during baby season, but I hadn't done that yet when the infernalis were born. Anyway, here is the tip, go to the hardware store and buy plastic toilet shims. They are small plastic shims about 1"x2" and gradually get thicker. I you push/wedge a couple underneath each end of your tubs it pushes the top edge of the tubs up flush with the rack ceiling, then the babies can't crawl out when they are born. Work for me anyway. I have Economy Animal Plastic racks for my females. Hope that helps next time.

Jeff
