Hatchling Rack All Ready

Day 34 and the eggs look to be doing well in the incubator. So I added the finishing touches to the hatchling rack.

Opted for kitchen paper as a substrate for now, and tonight added the hides (postal tubes cut down). Still need to add another water bowl, but with so many charity shops around that shouldn't be a problem :)

The lighting is on a timer (2-10pm) so that's working, and the hot spots are 31c - 33c inside the hot hide. Just need the next three weeks to hurry up and pass :)

Cheers,

As you may remember, I'm an advocate for keeping snakes in vivs rather than tubs, but when it comes to hatchlings tubs have their place. But in this build I have tried to merge the two and each tub has hides and is lit for 8 hours a day... almost like mini-vivs in a rack :2thumb:
