This video is awesome! I literally just ordered everything from Reptile Basics to do this to my racks. I'm excited to not have to keep filling water bottles!

So funny! we name our pets after Disney Characters as well.
Thank you for this very detailed video that shows all the pieces names in shop. Thanks again. I just built a rack for my mice but I haven’t solved the water part out yet. Do you know if a side mounted nipple is a available or if it needs to be from the roof down?
great video man!
Great clarity Many thanks
Man cleaning those rat racks is such a mission I used to have racks what a pain in the ass lol. Tractor supply cow cubes was the cheapest food you can get for rats lmao.
Kool video, watch your other video, how to build, I will make one, thank you.👍🏾
Great info gona build bunch of these
Great video! New subscriber. - Plethora Of Rats
Great video! I use reptile basics as well just the quick connect instead of tank connect, same idea though! We built pretty much exactly the same rat racks its kinda crazy. I use smaller strips of wood for each bins top though to help on weight. i think they are 3/4 and i also added casters with the peg, you should try it, makes moving and cleaning way easier

Oregon Exotic Balls -Tylor Cunningham is it just the quick connect drain valve from reptile basics? Or do I need another piece as well?
Is there anywhere with a drawing of the rack build? Measurements of cuts, treated or untreated wood type of wood, and types of screws recommended really.

Little late now but yeah his other video has all of what your asking for the video where he builds them
Hello again, sorry for all the questions but I’ve thought of two more; forgive me if they’re already answered several times in the comments. 1. What length screws are you using to get through the 2x3 into the another 2x3 on the shelve tops ? I was thinking 3-1/2” but they would protrude if used for the slides. I figure you used both 3” and 3-1/2”? 2. About how long does a bucket of water last, providing no leaks occur?
but i love how you ran the water lines behind the front 2x3 i put in front and now im totally changing it like tonight! lol
Where did you get the plastic containers the rats are in?
I did basically the same. I put my front legs back 3" from the face of ea level, then cut the braces 4.5" short for ea tub. Then you can pull them out, without removing water even if they are deeper in tubs

Yea I thought about it. But I'm picky about looks and this is what I decided I liked best lol
Halo bro, i from Indonesia & i can learn more from this video how to manage the cage for breeding rat, because i want to start breeding rat, very thank you broo🤝
What substrate do you use?
I have a question? What do you do about the the baby rats getting the food and water? Seems difficult for them to get to it.
How is it with the snake racks in same room as the rats?
Good work

I have an automatic waterer but my issue is that the bottom levels flood or are very wet by day 3. Is this the actual nipples or???? I've replaced them a few times and the same, the bottom nipples leak. Is it due to the gravity when they drink it just pours out? Whereas the top isn't as gravity driven? I'm so sick if it I'm about sell the whole rack that was $500 and build one that'll fit regular old rabbit water bottles.
Do you find any issues with keeping your rat racks in the same room as your snake racks? Thanks!!
Is that rack made with 2×4 or 2×3?
Pls list the materials. I cant know the names of by parts
Them clips are a pain in the ass. I use a fender washer, the drinking valve goes through the center of the washer connect the tubbing! Push it through the screen and your done.

Great video bro🙏. Question I’m working on building my own rack just wanna know if ASF have a problem reaching the water valve. Only asking because there a lot smaller than rats

I don't know honestly. We can't have ASF here so I've never tried.
@jaymiwelch4259

YEs ASF's will have a problem. We put a wood block below the water valve to give them the needed "boost" to reach it. Plus it gives them something to chew on.
Do you make these and sell them?
unfortunately in Brazil there is no
What’s the stuff in the front of the trays looks like cork??

With those 3 racks, how many rats are you producing
@MorphMixologyReptiles

It’s capable of about 400+ per month
Nice rack couple of issues with it though. You over did it with the size of the wood you used. You could have made the entire rack out of 2×2 and 2×1 pieces of wood to frame it and it would be lighter and easier to move around. Also when you pull the bins out they hit the water nozzles. You need to take off maybe 4 inches off the front sliding part of the rail so the tub comes down and does not run into the nozzles as you remove the tub. Overall your rack is nice and strong.
can anybody explain how the smaller rats reach to drink?
@MorphMixologyReptiles

My understanding is they get everything they need from nursing on the mom until they are big enough to reach the food and water on their own. Aside from that, the front of the tubs are sloped so they can "climb" them to the water.

I think he mentioned in the building of the building this rack video that he used the wire mesh for a ramp for smaller rats I could be wrong
Nice rack bro! I see one problem with naming a pair of snakes after 'coupled characters' if you will... what if Jasmine or Aladdin decide they want to take another lover? You'll be re-writing history! 🤣jokes, jokes

That’s a lot of rats if you sold feeders you might recoup some of your costs
22min is far to long. This video could've and should've been cut in half and would be perfect. To much rambling. Show us a list of materials and how to assemble.

@@MorphMixologyReptilesI did enjoy, thanks for making it. I've watched several of your videos as I am looking to start breeding rats and maybe rabits or quail for feeding birds of prey in falconry. I didnt mean any offense. I just found myself fast forwarding a bit and wanted to offer a opinion.
