multi dripper system?

[bluesox68]

With planning for my first summer with my panther I realize that I won't be able to set up my mistking on the back deck outside and I don't want to have just a single dripper. Has anyone done a multi drip system diy system? We will obviously hand mist as much as possible but i don't love relying on that. Leo will only have direct sun for a few hours after dinner so never the hottest part of the day either. Thanks

I have a mistking, but some people have poked holes in a cup or jar filled with water and/or ice cubes, and allowed it to drip into the cage.

hmm. I've never considered ice cubes. cool idea

A smart ideais to buy one of the outside misters for anyones backyard, the sell them at Home Depot, Set it up over his cage and have that. If not the ice cube thing works

Lowe's carries them, but you would need a pump or water pressure to operate them. I used these to make a portable liquid fertilizer/ weed killer spreader for my 25 Gallon tank and pump to pull behind my riding mower.

Use the woodpecker drippers.
It will run you about $150 for 50' of hose, a timer that hooks directly to your outdoor spigot, a pressure adjustment valve and filter, 10 woodpecker drippers, and hole punching tool.
I love my system for my parsonii and I use it indoors.

Thanks for all the suggestions! I was hoping to stay away from automatic systems. Hydro and water prices in Ontario have gone nuts so I was hoping for diy. That being said that site you showed me Extensionofgreen is awesome and i saw this, its budget friendly and should work well https://www.dripworks.com/backyard-misting-kit what do you think?

I can't speak on that exact system, but I was very pleased with the customer service and the system they helped me put together.

Just wanted to point out that the system I mentioned is great for drinking and is set on a timer, at the faucet. Each drip emitter uses 1/2 gallon per hour. I'd recommend misting as well for eye cleaning, unless rain was frequent.

I've run extensions from my MistKing all over the house. You can buy extra hose and a nozzle and run it off your indoor system. If you don't want both on at the same time you will need a ball valve or two to switch them over.
