Well as some of you know, I have been always wanting a reptile room. It has been in my vision for a while now and I am glad to say it is finally a reality!

The room has been made in the basement of my house. It is relatively small but should do for my needs. It is 14 ft x 13 ft. The heating is taken care of by baseboard heaters and this will keep the room consistent as all my cages will have individual heating. The lighting is by fluorescent lights. The lights are on a timer while the heaters are controlled by an individual temp control.

I had alot of electrical outlets put in the room and actually had to upgrade my box to handle the extra usage. Better safe than sorry!

Next up ......... to bring in the cages. This will likely take a while with my travel schedule these days but it will happen!

Here is the room ...
