Re: V. rudicollis enclosure

Thanks, but there is still soooo much work to do. I am letting Kim handle the budget....I don't want to know "how much is spent" untill the end of the project.

Call me chicken,

Re: V. rudicollis enclosure

love it. all that hard work will pay off ten fold. just out of curiousity, what live plants/trees/etc? are you going for the whole self-sustaining eco-system (with some intervention of course)? or more of a..well whatever you call it..the opposite idea of that...

Well, stopped at the hd, and picked up electrical supplies. Basic rough in is underway.

Scott

The only thing that will be living in my enclosure are the monitors and any lucky bug that can evade predation. Otherwise it will be overly decorated with silk plants and lots of climbing wood and a large tub for swimming.
