Thanks for all the great replies! I think I am going to start a small breeding group. 1.3 rats. I am going to build a rat rack to hold 3 bins...one for breeders and two for growing up offspring. I plan on buying double the amount of tubs needed, so when I need to clean, I will just get the new tub ready, pull out the dirty one, put the rats in the clean tub and replace. I have to put it in the same room as my snakes, so I plan on changing it every 3-4 days. I have heard about 50/50 on folks who do and don't advise keeping em in the snake room. I just don't have an option, so I will try it. If I get nailed consistently, i will know the rats are a problem.. Thanks, John
