Monitor relocation update

The water monitor has settled into his redecorated cage in a new place.

I put 2 rats in with him last night, and 2 hours later when I checked on them, they were gone, and he was back in his pond.

Today he is burried in the leaves on the warm side of the cage. When he comes out and climbs up a branch, I will take pictures.

We are using a non ballested mercury vapor lamp for day light, and since we have switched him (9 months now), his yellows have really become bright.

I think I will use one of these, and 2 4' verilux for each crocodile monitor enclosure.

The triple pained patio doors that we were going to use as the glass on the enclosures is not going to be ready in time for their arrival. It was a very good idea (Sheila's last minute great idea - we are now collecting patio doors for the future)

We are going to build 4 peices of shelving glass into th front's of each enclosure for now. We can always renovate later.

We have found rough cut slabs to use on the walls.

We are having intermintant difficulties with the digi cam, so we will be posting pictures as soon as possible.
