I can't see anything wrong with that. It's creative, it's strong, and it doesn't get funky because it's easy to clean. I would probably hot-glue a square of screen mesh over the plate to keep bugs from disappearing out the holes.

Seems a shame to go to the trouble of getting native plants and conditions and using such a small box for them. I understand you want to get up and running. What about sticking two of them together? That should be fast.

Custom, and also a "deluxe" Repti that I ended up with for free. Which is good, because that thing is super overpriced for its actual value.

Looking great so far.

The 6.2 measures UVB intensity in microwatts per square centimeter. The 6.5 measures UVB and a little UVA as UV index. I have both but if I were to pick just one I'd use the 6.2. You'll know the instant your UV bulbs start to die out if you sample the reading regularly. digression alert If you...

Although it's essentially the same thing as a Reptibreeze or other screen-frame cage, I found the DS to be sturdier, with less shimmy when you bump into it. I no longer have mine to check but it might be a heavier grade of screen frame.

I'm hoping this involves CRISPR. http://www.crisprtx.com/

The idea was that the pan would slide out from the front. The aluminum structure is screwed down to form the table top / floor boards (depending on which way you look at it). I've since abandoned the washing machine pan because it's too flat-bottomed. I would use or make something more tub like...

The look on Bosco's face suggests he didn't even bother denying it.

Maybe it doesn't come across well in the image but there are a number of smaller sticks perpendicular to the main horizontals, filling out the space behind and between them. I haven't put any vines in yet, either. The ledges may each hold more than a branch. Vines and other things will also...

I took the substrate tray that comes with a Reptibreeze, flipped it over, and used a heat gun & some weight to shape it into a sloping floor that leads to a plastic drain in the center. Shown here without the drain. For that I just cut a hole in the middle and added a $2 plastic snap-in drain...

I believe both cedar and pine are toxic to reptiles. You might want to google that.

Nearly there now. The mister nozzles installed mister heads by ispeedonthe405 posted Jun 14, 2017 at 8:18 AM Attachment points for branches (note: the branches are not yet attached, but are just lying there). I used magnets to hold up short pieces of 1" square board. You'll want N52-rated...

He looks fine. Every shed is an adventure, and change is part of the game. This is how my panther changed over two years. He's 2.5 now, and even now he can change after a shed. This time he's got just a little bit of his blue back in his face and belly. evolution by ispeedonthe405 posted Jun...

I hit the post button before I was done. I wanted to say, I made the cracks by standing the board up for a few moments while the glue was tacky but still fluid enough to drift down toward the ground. The cracks were then airbrushed. If you look you can see small squares of plywood in each...

The wall starts as foam board 1" thick. I laid it down and placed the pots around where I wanted them, then used the pond variety of Great Stuff to sort of cement the pots into place. When the first layer had dried/expanded enough I put down a second layer that makes a kind of basket enclosing...
