@Chilipina and I took advantage of the rainy weather (here in SoCal) to do some rearranging. Skittles was beginning to outgrow some of his perches; which hadn't been updated since his arrival a few months ago... So, we did some updating.
1.) Added both horizontal and vertical framework to the existing Dragon Ledges (from Dragon Strand). The intended purpose of this framework is to keep the BYGEL hanging pots (from IKEA) completely vertical, instead of leaning slightly on a diagonal; which causes them to press against the screen.
2.) Added thicker, stronger, more secure branches throughout the enclosure. The 'twigs' we used initially weren't going to support Skittles' weight much longer, whereas these new 'branches' should support him indefinitely.
3.) Removed 1 of the 6 Pothos plants from the enclosure. There seemed to be too much foliage in the enclosure. Plus, the plants located directly under the heat lamps weren't doing well. Removing 1 pot allowed us to relocate the remaining 5 to areas within the enclosure where they should all flourish.
Looking forward to reading any/all feedback... Thanks in advance!
