Kudos for getting her to the vet. Go at her pace, the dripper is a huge must have. She will notice and use it, it just takes a minute lol keep your eye or her urate it should be getting whiter. As long as shes still eating she should come around :)
Lay it with the glass facing the floor and slowly cut away the plastic. Could wear gloves to prevent cuts. The window screen you can get at Lowes, home depot, Walmart and any hardware store. Method of attachments could be zip ties (trim them so they don't hurt your little guy) bread ties...
If you dont want to deal with all that headache I suggest just going to get some window screen and just replace the glass with it. Window screen is cheap and easy to install. So much better airflow. Also don't use the water dish in the pic, use a dripper instead. Had one in my enclosure for two...
Check your calcium make sure it does not contain d3 and that your vitamins do. More live plants. Like something vertical with branches for her to climb and hide and sleep
I'm more than sure she will love the plant by the door. The pothos is Bruce's favorite plant to eat lol and climb. I'm going to have my eyes out for one as well, its a great idea.
Ok so this is Bruce's jungle gym, at least for now. I refining this idea about every other day but this is what I got so far. He mostly makes it to the middle windows and stops. I'm going to hang more live plants to try to entice him all the way around
Check the safe plant list. It can be found on Google and I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't a link on this forum somewhere. I'm fairly new and still learning my navigation
I cut all the heads off my superworms before I feed them to Bruce. Not taking any chances as I've heard the same thing. He eats them right out of my hand no problem
The cage size is good for now but the bulb is a bit much may want knock it back. Just make sure he has a spit to bask that's close enough to the light where the temps are good and won't burn himself. Youll be able to get temp readings before you even put him in so you can make any adjustments...
I considered the aluminum to begin with but I had plenty of extra plastic. Trial and error my friend lol. The moment i see anything wrong with the current ceiling its going straight to aluminum. Fiberglass is a definite no no for numerous reasons and was never even considered for this project...
No the top is the plastic as well. My light setup is hanging from the ceiling and has a gap of about an inch (maybe less) between it and the top of the cage. Its has been functioning this way for a few days now. I constantly check it because I had the same thought. It hasn't had any negative...
Thank you, it was a lot of fun to build then see him make it home. The screen I got from home depot In a roll that was four feet wide by eight feet long and it is the "plastic" kind not the aluminum. Worked perfect when pulled tight and stapled to the wood. Bruce climbs all over it!
This is Bruce's new home. I had him in the medium reptibreeze cage which is 16x16x30 and is great and all but pales in comparison to this kind of enclosure which is now 24x24x48. Rather than spend a ridiculous amount of money on an enclosure. I went to various stores to obtain the materials to...
