Yes, I drew up the plans and me and my dad made it. Thanks guys, it was orginally for Mr ester....:(

Pluto is still a little small for it....I suppose to means Ill have lots of time to make it Perfect and get all my plants grosing inside!
 
Yea It a little over 7 feet! the actualy enclosure is probably a little over 4 feet tall. I hope Pluto likes it!!! I sure do its like a piece of furniture for my living room!! Plus i can make a little minature jungle inside of it!
 
So yall think I should use the 10.0 UVA/UVB?? I was told to before the cage was done jusdt by my measurements. I figure Ill ask again to be on the safe side?
 
Nice cage!! nicely done! I like the big speakers and drum set as well :D

I would still use 5.0 I personally don't think you need a 10.0 The cham will probably bask up high by the lights anyhow and will absorb as much UVB needed. If its a reptarium like material on the top then yeah use a 10.0
 
Well done Codi!

What are the exact measurements?

mmmm pretty girls with power tools. *drools*
 
Im not to sure of the cost of the material....My dad said he would buy everything for me as an early bday gift. I do know ther powdercoating of the metal frame was like over $100 alone.....Thanks everyone
 
Im thinking shipping would be ALOT!! Do yall think its big enough to get a mistking?? Im so tired of hand mistting!
 
Oh you terrible terrible Slumlord you! For shame! :p :D

Looks very nice! Love to see pics of it setup. well done! :)

Do you live in really dry climate Codi? what species is it for? Why not just make a dripper, save the mi$tking money for feeders! :)

I live in texas. Its pretty dry here unless its rainy! Pluto is paradlis so he loves to be misted! He is already spoiled and getting a variety of feeders....He seems to get dehydrated pretty easy too. I work 3 12 hour shifts on friday saturday and sunday so he doesnt getting misted very often 3 days a week. I suppose I just like to spoil my guys, I know its frowned upon!! You should see all the crap my son has:p

So nobody has answered my question on the average size of a 4 month old
 
Very nice Codi!
I like the fact that you powder coated the metal.
With a metal frame how is the screen fastened to it?
