In working out how to layout my snake room for maximium efficiency, I soon realized there was a large open area in the middle. I figured this would be a great place for a workbench, but what to put underneath the work surface? Then it hit me, More hatchling slots always come in handy. So I sat down and designed this way cool unit. It is built as two seperate hatchling racks, each on wheels and they are made to be joined together into one larger unit with dowel pins and draw catches. Each rack is 8 levels of 6 per level or 48 trays per rack, 96 total for the pair. Heating is controlled by two Helix DBS 1000's. Each level has it's own run of flexwatt and 6 levels on each side can be disconnected when not needed. I also made a nice laminated top with a leftover scrap of formica from BRB cage #2.
The rack shown split apart. Overall joined size is 32" x 52" but breaks down into two 16" x 52" sections.
One really big plus with this rack is having two seperate controllers, I breed Brazilian Rainbow Boas and Boa Constrictor Imperators. This rack will allow me to keep both species in one rack and if one set of babies needs more than half the rack, np, I can rewire some of the 12 plugable shelves to the other controller.
