Waldo has his big boy home!

[Kristen99]

I spent all day setting up his 24x24x48 has ivy pothos a sheffera a money tree and a split leaf plant. Finally finished he has been roaming about his new enclosure for the past 3 hours. I got the lattice idea from another keeper on here. What do you think?!

 

[Decadancin]

I think you took the "Where's Waldo" theme very seriously !!!

 

[Kristen99]

Maybe too seriously haha I can't help it though!

 

[Kristen99]

If you look close at the top left you can see his head under the uvb I was always pretty good at finding "Waldo" he although is a new level of where's Waldo expert eddition!

Can you hold your hand under the basking light at the closest spot to in inside the cage without having to move it away?
You want to make sure Waldo can't get burned.

That looks like the coolest setup! I would love to upgrade my veiled's cage with more live plants, but since it is winter I can't find many good plants. I have been looking for a jasmine vine but I doubt there will by any at the store Anyway, I am very jealous of your great enclosure! Awesome job!

That setup looks exactly how I want to do mine! That looks awesome! I like the use of the lattice haha I had the same idea, go check mine out on my page under the “enclosure ideas that may help you”

Great job, looks great

 

[Kristen99]

Kinyonga) the basking light I have hangs above the cage from the ceiling the basking temp is low 80s right now my little guy is around 4 months old. The dome looking thing on top of the cage is my misting system I rigged to be ontop of the cage and make more of a rain for him.

I have been collecting the live plants for a while and they basically filled my room so I'm happy to put them all to use finally! Maybe on Josh's frogs? The might have jasmine vine I would check it out! Thank you for your kind words!

Oh yeah I forgot about that! Also I bet Waldo is having the time of his life! Thank you for the advice.

 

[Matthew43s]

Haha oh hell did you really?! That’s awesome, didn’t take you long to go out and get what you needed to make it happen lol glad to see I could help, this thing looks great! Spread the word let everyone know, it’s a pretty sweet use of space

 

[davthevieled]

Can we get a weekly thread where we get to try and find him in his cage? lol...

Seriously though, it looks fantastic! Great job on the set up!

I had the cage and as soon as I say it I was like yes this is perfect! You did the grate at the bottom as well right? I got some screen for it but I'm not there yet I was way to tired from getting everything cleaned and put together to even attempt that today but I will be working on it this week in the mean time I just drilled some holes in the bottom mittle of it for drainage. Thanks again that was a brilliant idea!

As soon as I put him in it he was scouting everything out it was pretty cool I was going back and forth debating how and when I should get him in his big cage and I think I picked a good time. Thank you I am very pleased with it!

That is great! Haha most definitely will be doing this

 

[Twitchet]

Hi Kristen, looks fantastic, Waldo is a lucky chap, it will be nice to see him develop over the next few months.
I have trellis too, it’s great, as said it’s such a good use of space and perfect for little mitten hands to climb on.
Congratulations.

 

[Fiona's Mom]

Looks great...takes finding Waldo to a whole new level.

I did do the grate at the bottom, I used the plastic sheet that comes with the reptibreeze, I cut a 19x19 square into it with a dremal tool so I could superglue the egggrate (got that at Lowe’s in the ceiling tile section) and then I added the screen mesh on top so the feeders couldn’t get out. It sits perfectly on top of the egg crate so that the bottom sits flush on my counter top and it can seal the enclosure up. Then I just added that Tupperware at the bottom for drainage, I’m gonna spruce it up to and make it look good. But for now It works very well!


And no problem at all, I’m here to help people help there Chams, that’s the name of the game. Gotta give them the best homes possible
