I've built a few racks before this one, but this is the best so far.

Nice Set Up. What is the deal with the hinges in the middle? Are these plexiglass doors, and if so, how do you slide those tubs out (lg. ones on the right) which appear to be partially covered when the doors are opened?
I am in the process of starting our own breeding program for our(current) 3 corns and a tegu (tegu # 2 comes home tomorrow) so I've been collecting ideas for the rack. Yours seems very well thought out.
Also, do you have an exhaust fan, or just the vent?
What are you feeding, and what do you do with excess rodents?
Thanks in advance.

the hinges on this particular rack are because the door is so large that it hits the wall on the other side of the room. i put hinges in the middle for that reason.
the door frame is 1x2 pine with the plexiglass inset in the frame. the main hinges for the door cannot be seen but are on the right side of the rack.
there is an exhaust fan running 24/7.
i feed a combination dog food with mazuri mouse food.
the extras that i have are either allowed to continue to grow or they become popsicles.
i have plans for these types of racks if you are interested.
thanks chris
