Breeding rack hide

[Alex Hernandez]

Question regarding leopard gecko breeding rack. For those of you who use a rack system with primarily 15qt tubs do you just put a moist hide in as the only hide or do you put a hide and then under it put a moist paper towel, which would be on hot side. So that it is easy for Leo to shed or do you just take leo out when it's about to shed and put it a moist box until its finished shedding...

I use 6qt tubs and keep two hides and a moist hide in each. I use the 4 cup Rubbermaid Tupperware with a hole cut in the lid and sphagnum moss inside. I find about half my Leo's soaking and half hiding at any given moment so I think they appreciate the humid hides and don't mind climbing over things

I use 15qt with to small hides

I use a 15qt with only a humid hide. Because the rack system provides security, the whole bin serves as a hid.

Thanks all for the information.

I use a humid hide and a 6-8"" piece of 2" PVC pipe. It doesnt take up that much space and they love the close quarters. Half of it is over the heat tape and half is off. The humid hide is on the cooler side.
