Set up my enclosure today :)

Here it is with the vines, feeder cup and dropper going. I used a gang valve with three point distribution and hooked up tubing to three different areas of the cage for dripping. Worked out pretty good. Still got to get the wires routed etc but it should be good to go by Thursday. Trying to see if the dropper will get the humidity up. Right now it is jumping from 28 - 40%

What kind of drip system do you have there?
 
Here is a pic of the drip system....well part of it. The container was $1 from the dollar tree, I drilled a hole so the air line tuning fit snug then used aqaurium silicone around the outside edge. Got the gang valve from some of my fish stuff and hooked it up to three lines for different areas of the cage. I left the tubing on top f the screen so when it drips it does so through the screen creating rain drops.

No, this issue has been fixed and quite a few members use them with no problem.

Also, the UVB bulbs do not last almost a year. They need to be changed at the very least every 6 months as the UVB projection dwindles long before the light goes out.

If you want some awesome lights that last a year you can talk to Todd at lightyourreptiles he is very helpful and informative. I have switched to the T5 high output arcadia and couldn't be happier.
 
Your setup looks pretty good, I'd get some additional branches in there. The dripper idea is a great one, I'm gonna use that for sure!! Can't wait to see pics of the little one!!
 
Oh I meant to ask...do you guys out anything in the bottom for them to feed off of?

Anyone have any input on this? Referring to the cricket feeder on the previous page

Thanks! You were a great help and will keep my eyes out for future additions :).
Yeah I love to DIY if I can and I had to put that fish stuff to use since it was just sitting in the closet :)
 
For me I don't put anything on the bottom, as long as they are vertical they very rarely jump out, well for me at least. Also make sure that the crickets cant get behind the mesh in the cup, and I use an opaque bottle, I had a clear one but my cham would get confused, she would go for a cricket and instead hit the plastic bottle because she could see through it! Btw your cage is looking good!
 
Thanks, I sanded the cup so it was not "clear". Hopefully that will work. Looking forward to trying it tomorrow :)
 
Thanks Sang! i can't wait until tomorrow morning :). Thank you for all you Help and guidance and for hooking me up with a stunning boy!
