New vivaria.

Hi All,

I've just completed the timber work on my set of three new vivaria, and I'd thought I'd share it with you! Next step...electrics and vents in the rear walls.





They measure 72 inch high (overall), 48 inch wide and 18 inch deep.

Re: New vivaria.

Looks promising. Did you make it from scratch? Any close-ups? Sliding doors or hinged ones? What kind of heating and lighting solution are you going for?

Re: New vivaria.

Yes, I made it. No close-ups yet (not much to see!). Sliding glass doors with finger grips ground in. Under floor heating (cable). Broad-spectrum lighting.

Re: New vivaria.

I reckon Garters in two of them and Natrix natrix in the third.
