When I get done with the upgraded digs I promise I will flaunt it bad.

Right now it's a very rudimentary box, it looks awful and its starting to bow out from lack of planning on my part.

The new one has concrete for a floor and side walls.

http://www.ssnakess.com/forums/varan...-new-digs.html

Don't know if anyone noticed, I use wood tops on the big tanks to keep the humidity decent. I drill air vents in the wood, and it winds up cheaper than those crappy screen tops as well.

My big Pueblan is a master escape artist so his top is bolted down, I have to remove 2 bolts to feed him, but he can't get out.

Re: quick pics of our reptile room..NEW PICS Added

So I have this streak of ambition and boredom, decided to get this cart thing over with, now all I need to do is cut a plywood floor for the bottom and install an under counter light below the top deck.

For feedings, I can roll the cart into the middle of the room and go to work. The spaces under the floors are great for storing things like meds, extra water bowls, stuff like that.

They are all garter snakes. Babies and yearlings.

Re: quick pics of our reptile room..NEW PICS Added

the ones in the bottom right are about 3 months old, 4 inches to 5 inches long.

The baby Infernalis' in the bottom left are a month older, the female is already about 10 inches. She's going to be a big girl.

The little Mexican garter snake is getting thick, she will be on pinkies soon.

The snakes in the top tanks all eat pinkies now.

The water snake does that when he wants food.

Dekayi are those little brown snakes people find in flower gardens, not related to garters. (well maybe a little bit, both are Natricine Snake species) Garter snakes, red bellies, brown snakes and water snakes are all of that category.

Well fudge....

So I got another 4 foot tank given to me, and there was 2 shelfing racks out in the barn that are 4 foot long... Perfect.

Except that the leaky old half fallen down barn has allowed them to warp and become weak.

Useless!!

So I'm putting in another Gorilla rack to stack cages on.

Thanks.. always work in progress.

So I put in the recently acquired 55 gallon tanks, and came up with this...

The wood is just sitting there until I clear out all the construction materials.



Stubs!!
