    Screen type

    My cage is 24x24x72 so its on the higher side as i was light for space when I built it. I wish i had made it a bit wider like 30" would have been perfect!. The wood my Dad had in this workshop so it was built out of recycled wood and we painted it using a no voc paint from HD. I am glad we did...

    Screen type

    I used screen that you get from the hardware store ( Home depot or Loews) I was lucky as my Dad found a roll of it at a yard sale for $10. The cage is made out of wood and the screen is staple gunned into place. The top is not all screen ( I wish it was ) as there is just a space at the top so...

    150 watt heat lamp excessive ?

    Hi everyone! I find myself having to use a 150 watt bulb in my heat lamp in order to get the 90+ temps for Carl's basking spot. Does a 150 watt seem excessive ? I was having a hard time getting to 85F with the 100 watt bulb I had in there this morning. The main basking branch is about 10"...

    Lighting question

    Will the light be running the full length of the cage or just at the basking area ?

    New Light Question

    Thank you for the reply, that's what i was thinking. His cage before was very low light with just the heat lamp and UVB. for its size this LED is putting out some light for sure.

    Reptisun LED / UVB combo

    Would you all believe that this light in a 24" in Canada is $220 not the 89.99 like in the USA. Crazy how much we pay to have pets in the North

    Official Enclosure Picture Thread #2 - post your pics!

    This is Carl's cage 24x24x72, added a Pothos to the bottom portion to help with some humidity as its a bit hard in a screen cage in Canada to get up past 75% humidity

    Ambient temps too high

    Mid 80 should be okay correct, as long as they can get a bit cooler at night. My condo never really get cooler then 75 in the summer time. 80 is a good ambient temp with basking in the high 90s Keep your humidity up with misting and a plant in the cage so he can have some moist air pockets and...
