Snakes and Sh!t

Well, cage building has been suspended for a few days due to my work schedule. I’m working double shifts until Thanksgiving.
I do however get to enjoy a nice four day weekend starting Thursday though, and plan to do some building then if the weather cooperates.

I’ve been working on plans to redesign the rat barn to maximize my production potential should I decide to significantly expand the breeding colonies. This should result in two new rodent rack designs, one to hold the large Van Ness cat litter pans and a variation of the cement tub breeding rack design that is already posted. I’m thinking of a design that will support the tubs from the bottom as opposed to having them suspended on tracks.
I also plan to replace an old melamine rack this winter while I have the colubrids in brumation. This will be a large rack for the 32 quart tubs.
Something needs to be done with some new shoebox racks too. I have never liked the hatchling rack design I have posted on the site and am wanting to replace those plans with something better.

I think I’ll pair up a few snakes this weekend too. My albino male ball is off feed completely, so I’m hoping he’s developing an interest in breeding this season. So far only one female has started refusing food, all the others are ravenous as they often are just prior to the breeding season.
