New reptileroom!

Okay, not completely finished yet, but already showing you guys my new reptile room.
enjoy...(?)
One enclosure, meausurements (spelling...) 90 X 40 X 40


some enclosures,


and a small overview

each rack cost me €30,-. The wood is a leftover from a friend of mine (works at DIY store)
one sheet of wood usually costs around 15 / 20 euro. 10 sheets are used.
the electrical wiring costs €0,55 per meter.
Fittings will be €0,95 each.
Dont know the price of glass / rails yet...This will probably be the most expensive part of the project...

updates will follow...and...when finished, you're all invited!

Looks great! Most of all, I envy all the space you have there. I think I have about 15 square meters of space for everything I own. So when I'm talking about throwing out the TV to make more room, I'm not kidding.

I'll look forward to seeing photographs as the new room developes. I too wish I had that kind of space to build in.

Re: New reptileroom!

Can you imagine hundreds off pigs wandered around this room 20 years ago...

I hope to fitt the glass for 8 enclosures before next monday...so, maybe some update pics by then(?!!?)

oh, by the way, this isnt even the half of the stable! I already have two little rooms (3 X 3) but they will then be used for crickets, fish and other fooditems.
The other half is now a bit of my storage room, with a lot of plastic tubs, wood, fake plants, styrofoam boxes etcetc...

Re: New reptileroom!

I thought it looked like a piggery or something...with those low, dividing walls! You live on a farm?
