I have decided to start breeding rats on a larger scale, but I will be building my own set-ups. The info I am needing is on the watering systems. I need to have a gravity fed watering system, that will last for 5 to 7 days. Any help? Thanks Andy Federico

Hey Andy. Check this out....

This link is for a kit but you can buy the valves and hardware separately and buy a 5 gallon bucket from Home Depot. I set mine up for 4 concrete mixing tubs from Home Depot as well and the whole thing cost me probably around a hundred total. I refill the water about every 10 days with the tubs holding around 14 breeder's and their offspring. Let me know if you have any questions.

No Daytona for me.....my life will be ending on Sept. 10th when I get married and I can't seem to get away to Daytona especially with a 12 day trip to Costa Rica for the honeymoon. Definitely a man's dream to go herping for 12 days on their honeymoon!!!!!

Oh, and no one was has ever told me I had a nice rack....LOL Good luck on yours!
