I just bought a new cage today that is 4 feet tall and 2 feet by 2 feet so I have a lot of space to fill! :D I was thinking of building a "tree" out of real dried out branches, as I have seen others do on this forum with great success! The only problem is I dont really know how to make one...does anybody have good step by step pictures of this process? Or can they explain how to go about it? Thank you!!!!
 
my cage is the same size i found a big fake plant in my shed, i washed it and its fine its a fake palm tree. just go to a furniture store and buy a big fake ficus or just buy a real big ficus your choice but my dad also but me two big pieces of drift wood and he screwed them together so it goes from the bottom all the way to the top and the top branch is his basking spot too.:D
 
Thank you for the ideas :) If anyone who has a large cage could post a picture of their setup that would be great just looking for some ideas! :D
 
also can wedge dowels in the side then vip tie them, then go ahead and put pothos and other shorter bushes all around the cage
 
or u could buy a umbreella plant nd a pothos nd u a colt hanger nd make a whole ontop of the cage nd hang the pothos on the colt hanger

A bunch of Zip Ties, i found spots i wanted it to run to and put zip ties in the screen, then kind of free formed it from there, then from that i just made highways from where the vines came into play. Turned out pretty well i would say! :)

Thanks! Oh man, pain in the rump would definitely be putting it as an under statement :D When he does not want to come out, he has no problem avoiding me!

HAHA and they are just an ass about it too :D Isabella my Veiled was like that in her old enclosure, although a lot smaller she would get around the back side of the ficus and I had to bust one to just reach that far around to poke her to the top just so I could clean lol
