Right guys its now finished I have moved it into place and quickly threw a 10% uv light in the hood to take some pics but ill get all the equipment installed in it tommorrow. I will be have 1x 5% 24" UV, 1x 30" flurecent tube to aid in plant growth and extra light, a 75w basking light and the...
I managed to get it all varnished today was meant to be beech but looks more like antique pine beech is the colour of my vivs next to it. Never mind im still happy with the colour. All that remains now is to silicone the joins and add the mesh I will do this at the weekend:
Well here is this weekends update its now constructed and tomorrow I will varnish it. Today the base was finished and the door was built. Next week it will just be a case of meshing the enclosure, fixing the base to the main enclosure and I will be covering the plates in the base with plastic...
Yeah I bought it from a breeder who owns a rep shop. He has one of the largest collections in Europe and the largest in the UK his site is www.lee-warren.com it was only when you said that and I saw your alarm bells started to ring lol as I want an ambilobe and not a nosy be.
I bought this panther as an ambilobe 4 weeks ago it has been developing brilliantly and is doing very well. I just posted some pics and Syn said it looks like his nosy be then I saw his thread and thought they look bloody simular I just want to confirm this is an ambilob and not a nosy be isn`t it.
Thats a bit much aint it they didnt say they go away alot so need to always transport it they said they were visiting a friend for a week. Just because someone owns a cham doesnt mean that person then needs to become a recluse does it people can own chams and have a life. All they asked was...
Thought I would post some updated pics on my panther he has grown loads in the last 2 weeks and is filling out and colouring up nicely. Needed to clean out his viv today so I moved him onto the ficus that will be going into his new enclosure:
This is him on the 02/02/90
And Today
Right im nearly done on the construction side now. Today I got the other 2 panels or the roof on to finish that off. I then put 2 shelves inside to hold the plants then I started to build the base the frame is built all I need to do next week is build a door for it and I am going to coat some...
I only get time to crack on with it at weekends, there is no point trying to do a couple of hours here and there after work thats when people tend to rush and I want to make sure everything goes perfectly so dont worry I will update when I do something.
Just to confirm Plants are washed and cleaned, pebbles are all ready to go ontop of the soil. I live in the UK so I estimate about £60-70 for everything including varnish, hinges etc.
Right I cracked on a bit more today and got half of the roof done, on the table it looks a little big but I needs to hide all the equipment and dripper and I will build the base to the same dimensions so it looks equal and not so tall. I also used the aluminium mesh on top I used this for the...
Well I got a bit more work done today. I have now built and fitted the door. The hinges are sunk in aswell. The wood had a bit of flex to it so I strengthend it with the wood in the corners. As you can see I also ran a lip around the inside of the door for 2 reasons 1. To stop bugs escaping...
What you on about mate did you even bother to read this thread. You know its comments llike your which is the reason people dont bother staying on forums.
Thats ok I always give my pets the best care possible if you look in my build thread you will see the corner of my 8x3x3 fish tank which has now been closed down and I have put 2 48x32x24 vivs on to the stand for my reps.
He is in that exo terra viv behind as he is to small to go into his flex. The viv is setup properly for him and have it form his breeder that it is fine for him to live in there for about 3 months when he will then move into his flex. The exo terra behind has a 60w heat bulb set to about 80...
