Re: Sliding glass doors for Varanids?
So you grab the edge thats bridging the gap between the edge of the enclosure and the door and pull it that way?
if youve got a 6' sliding door your pushing if from the side furthest away from where your opening is so your 6' from where the monitors going to get trapped etc and i dont know how you close a door but a hold the handle nearest the edge to be closed i dont close it from the hinge.
Both systems have caused tail loss in varanids because humans are involved the odd hatchling has been crushed by both sytems to.
Hinged doors if youve got a small opening you dont have to take the door of to make adjustments as the gap is the full size of the opening,
There also cheaper to install/free in some cases,
i used to keep argus's and sand has ended up in those runner systems due to them piling all the sand up against the doors open the door sand falls in to the tracks the deeper runners on those doors made it more difficult to get it out to.
