Most breeding racks I've seen have heat cable that's easier tbh

I think with breeding racks heat strips or tape tends to be used rather that heat mats but i think it depends on the rack. Some form of heat will be needed to provide suitable hot end temps and a thermal gradient. With any luck some one who has a rack will com along and tell you how they have theirs set up and what they use

Some racks come with heating and some without which you have to buy separately I think it just depends on the rack manufacturer

heat mats are pretty much always necessary!
The need a gradient of heat. for corns generally 30 degrees AT VERY HOTTEST down to 21 degrees.
for racks you can get tape/strips instead of chunky mats.
