I've been meaning to post these for a while. I've got a little free time so no better time than now...
These photos are kind of outdated. I now have less adults occupying the 32 qt. racks, and have far more babies :)
This is my adult caging. Males are kept on the single rack to the left at slightly cooler temps. Females occupy the racks to the right.

These are my baby racks, a storage shelf, a freezer for all of my frozen rats and a small mouse rack. I feed mostly frozen thawed rats, but keep a few mice for hatchlings and stubborn adults that don't want to make the change to f/t rats. Luckily, 90+% take frozen rats for me :)

This area is comprised of my racks that I started out with when I got back into snakes in 2004. They are all the same height, and work very well as a work station. This is where I clean all my tubs, warm up thawed rats (see hair dryer attached to shelving unit), and do my record keeping. I have debated replacing this area with 10 slot adult caging, but I really like the way it is set up now. There is also a closet in the back that I use to store spare water bowls, couplings, hideboxes and anything else that I may use for my daily snake chores.

Let me know what you think, and any improvements you would make. I am open to constructive criticism!!!
