Just wondering what the norm is? Rack systems or separate units with belly heat or room temps (Mine is in the high 60's to mid 70's).
Started mine in a vision 28 tub unit, but lost 3 when sliding out the tubs. Not sure if they were crushed trying to climb out or when tub was withdrawn. Newspaper with cork bark hide (flat pieces)and water dish. Switched them all to rubbermaid shoe boxes with snap on lids and room temps.
Had this unit for over 8 years and never lost any hatchlings due to crushing.

Appreciate some input. Thanks.
