Working on Pascals new home.

Here’s a few pics of Pascal and the Exo Terra I’m working on for him to move into . He also sucks his tongue out occasionally for some reason. Kinda weird.

It looks amazing!!! Pascal has one lucky owner! If you don't mind me asking, what type of foam is that? And what do you mean about "sucks his tongue out"?

It is Great Stuff Pond & Stone spray foam. I️ catch Pascal sometimes sticking his tongue out when he’s just hanging out there. Not sure if it is something unique to him.

Thanks for the foam info! If possible, can I see a picture of Pascal doing this?

Should be the 1st pic I posted.

Looks like he is just licking the glass for moisture, I think he is fine. He will LOVE his enclosure!

Thanks, I'm sure he's fine too it's just an odd behavior I find. I know it looks like he's licking something but he actually perches there or somewhere else in the enclosure with his tongue out. Whenever I look at him he pulls it back in. He's funny that way.

Waiting for the last of the Great Stuff to arrive than I'm at a fork in the road, do I silicone the Great Stuff and put Eco Earth on it or leave it as Black Great Stuff. Both need to be cleaned from time to time. Trying to go for a more natural look for his enclosure but his health comes 1st.

I've also prepped some bioactive soil as well with springtails and isopods.

Well this is progress, retaining wall siliconed, spots filled, drainage tube installed and siliconed some air plants in.

Set it up with some plants to see what it might look like when done.

They’ll be more vines and sticks for him make his way up and back and to sun bathe. Wondering if basking area should be in the front or back? Any ideas

Everythng looks amazing! I would make the basing spot in a back corner.

I’m going to in the back right side. I have a piece of wood that he can perch on to bask.

Build looks great! I personally couldn’t deal with the spray foam, I feel like it ruins a $200 cage, so I went with a universal rock background. I’m going to try the great stuff background with a smaller, less expensive dart frog tank.

All done, Pascal is moved in.

It looks amazing!

It looks amazing!

Thank you, my hope is that he has enough places to hide in case he gets nervous. So far he pretty much hangs out in the front but he explores from time to time or heads over to his food dish for a snack.

I’m wondering if there is anything else I can do to improve the set up.

Update, some plants didn’t work out so we’re replaced with others. Some of the leaves dropped of course.

Not sure if I should hunt down some more tall umbrellas to give him some more coverage.

Pascal has gotten a little bigger since last time. He’s showing a little orange in the face and yellowish green in his body.
