Been working on this for the past 2 weekends, its for my baby BP, i know that main area would prob be too big for him so i designed it with 2 smaller rooms so he can feel comfortable there for now and later when he gets bigger he can use them as hides. on the left there's gonna be the heat source, so that side of the enc will be warm.

well tell me what you think...

well the bottom (shallowest room) is just for heat so i can move the heat source around to find the best heat area for him and storage for extra hides and extra substrate...small stuff like that, wasnt intending it for him, but hey you never know. That hole you see linking the top to the bottom is just for better heat transfer, it will be covered with protected aluminium & substrate.. Well thats the plan so far. ill try post more pics as i progress...

for your picture problem you have to right click on the picture and click properties adn tehn copy the URL in there not the url in the toolbar.

your cage looks good...although i dont think you will need that hole for het transfer. what are planning on heating it with?

yo..that is a nice enlclosure. Great job building it. But, what is the upper right hand section for? The diagram doesn't indicate it's use. What type of heat source are you going with? Is there a cut out on the top for a heat light?

dj that top right section is for a dwarf boa that i have for now. maybe later on i might open it up for my ball or i might just use it for a holding area for when im cleaning, or feeding (i think its too close for feeding tho and its the same environment, and i want him to associate a totally different env for feeding.)

I'm definitely not a fan of moving to a sep. enclosure for feeding, just extra handling and stress before and after feeding... just asking to get bit.

Lay a nice tile or stone bottom to seal and if you want you can put down newspaper or something, but for my JCP cage I just have vinyl tiles laid for the flooring and works like a charm... Plus can feed in enclosure so that theres no bites when moving back to enclosure.
