Here is Duquesa's enclosure, a modified shower stall, we were given her and the enclosure for free.

Oops, I forgot to turn that over! Oh well! Silly me!
<img src="http://members.shaw.ca/kattia/15gal.JPG" width=500 height=400> I keep a small yellow rat and glades x black rat in there, they like to burrow, what strange li'l ratsnakes.
My pride and joy is this false bottomed 33 gal with land and water. We keep three ribbon snakes in that one.

ahwwww!!!! i luv the shower stall thats an awsome idea now i know what to keep my eye out for LOL!!
I agree with Jason, that modified shower stall is too cool! :thumbsup:
All the viv's are made with ground coconut (coir, bed-a-beast), with a touch of potting soil. Better soil could be made, but this seems good enough that so far none of my plants have gone through repotting shock. Plus I'm a broke student and can't afford all those nice fertilizers and no car so I can't go out to neat rock yards and find decomposed granite and the like.
I can type out how I made the land water viv no problem, just a in a bit a rush right now and I'll take more pics to illustrate what I'm saying, it's funny cuz I had pics of the actual construction, but I deleted them.

How does the ventilation work in the shower stall?
