New Slitherin Rack System

[SnakePower]

Hi all,

With the time quickly ticking away, before the season's hatchies start coming out, I knew I would need something new, as last season I really struggled with how to store/house/heat my hatchlings.

I have just got my first Slitherin rack system and could not be any happier with it!

It is very well made, easy to put together, solid as a rock, yet easy to move around. (due to the 6 large commercial grade wheels) The tubs are solid, yet clear enough to easily see what's inside!

I remember when I first saw a thread here about these terriffic rack systems, I spent quite some time just looking at them on the Slitherin website, but thinking they were a tad on the xxxy side. Now having seen one and purchasing my first, I can say with confidence that they are worth every penny!!!

Very compact, space effective, and if you sit down to work out the cost per hatchling storage, it really doesn't end up that much more. By the time you include tubs, racks, heat cords and thermostsats, the slitherin unit may cost a fraction more, but is so much better.

Now I plan to slowly change all my current racks and various storage setups with Slitherin units, and in the end, I will have more space, neater and more hygenic setup. It will also enable me to keep more animals in the same space and probably much easier maintenance than my current arrangement.

All in all, I highly recommend them!!!
Happy herping,
Zac.

thanks zac, i'd been thinking about these, but knowing you think they are great really makes them just that little bit more appealing, i think the 60 tub hatchy rack will come in handy, i think i'll need 2, thanks heaps zac and thanks dee i had lost the web site,

Hey Spilota, how did you go with the quails. Did they all hatch out. are the babies doing well in the rack?

[spilota_variegata]

Only 3 quail hatched But... all are doing well in the rack I have to play around with my humidities next time I try to incubate quail - or at least use the real incubator I've got. I can't belive how good the rack is. I hear Slitherin is getting racks better designed for raising fowl - I can't see anything wrong with the ones he has now. The only improvement I could think of would be making slightly deeper ones with a provision for a light but the heat cord under the racks I'm using seems to work like it was made for the job

Hey Guys, I will post a pic maybe tomorrow, just don't have the time right now.
Steve, glad my recomendation makes you more comfortable with these! I am sure you would love them, they're unreal!

[ponybug]

thanks for the pointers,

[Oldbeard]

Oh thats too bad about your quail eggs. Yeah my friend said the same about the rack.she wishes she had one years ago. It is perfect. Glad your bubs are doing well

Hey Zac,
I seem to recall a thread or post about these racks now coming with a back and side panels to keep the heat it. Do the new rack systems now come with these sides or are they an extra?
