Enclosure Wall

[Spags]

I am getting a Dragon Stand cage http://dragonstrand.com/product/extra-large-breeder-cage/
And i want to make the walls of the cage look like rock. Does anyone have any experience with making them or have any pictures of their enclosures?

Check the forums I remember a while back someone done a tutorial on how to do it with great stuff insulation.

It was bugging me because I loved that thread and knew what @brownie64 was talking about

Close but I was talking about this one actually. But that's a good one too like you it drove me nuts until I found it.

Both those threads are great! I like using the expanding foam for backgrounds. My local reptile store sells rigid panels that resemble rock ledges(very realistic) that are made specifically for screen enclosures. I know they don't make them...so there has to be a supplier they are getting them from.

I like using styrofoam sheets myself. I watched a bunch of the spray foam insulation DIY videos but it looked like more work and some didn't turn out that great so I decided to get a 4' x 8' sheet of styrofoam insulation from Lowes and made this instead:



Here's a link to that DIY cage's build thread in case you want some more ideas:

So got our first veiled Chameleons and really digging it. I do a lot of carpentry myself and really impressed with your cage you built. My question is how did you shape the styrofoam to look like that?
