how do breeder house their hatchlings?

[stephenie191]

Hopfully i'll have corn hatchlings this year.

I have been thinking about how to house the hatchlings, i want the most cost effective tubs but i do think that the tiny cricket feeding tubs are abit small.

I would like them to be big enough to fit in a small water bowl and a loo roll for a hide or two. . .

Somwhere that sells a bulk lot of tubs would be good?

any help would be brilliant. I've got everything else pretty much sorted

a big cricket tube would be fine for a while then move them into small faunariums or rubs. if you ask any rep shop if you can have some empty cricket tubs im sure they will just give them to you. got loads from my local shop (clod blooded) when i sold my 16 stenos.

Cornish Crispa do some tubs. (sorry for short reply, holding Royal while typing!)

Okies. . .

Just kitchen roll folded over for a hide? LOL

lunch boxes with holes pierced in them would be a bit bigger than cricket tubs

Ohhh thanks for that!

I mean if i end up with 30 from one corn then cricket tubs it'll be but i'd prefer somthing with more room like this . . .

thanks

£6 for a tub???

It'll cost a bomb, or is that for a pack of 5? Thats the lowest they do

Better off going to home bargains and buying 3 lunch boxes for £1

Wikos, and The Range do them in all sizes at a good price.
