New enclosure for my mac (pics)

Hi everyone!

I got my new enclosure for Albert the other day, here he is all moved in,

His fave spot is in his little house but he also likes it at the top of his hanging plant!

He has been out and about and seems to be quite pleased with it.

He has a 100 watt heat globe and also a heat mat under his fave hide.

The size is 100cm wide x 50cm deep x 80cm high

I have also put a shelf in now up nearer the light for him and have 2 temp gauges in to make sure he is comfy.

Any comments , suggestions are most welcome!!

RE: New enclosure for my mac (pics)

I thought about that too but he isn't a scardy snake at all and likes to look around loads when he is out and didn't hide much in his small box. He is out and wandering around most of the time, I will leave him a few more days and then it's time for a feed, see how he goes then,

Worst comes to worst he can have his small box in the big one but I left him in the small box with the lid off in that one and he came out on his own and didn't use the small one anymore.

Ohh! Can I have 2 childrens/ spotteds in there? do they HAVE to be both macs? I will always seperate them for feeding so they don't bite each other.

And put a couple more hides in also.

How would I introduce them to each other?

yeah mate go for it... when introducing the snakes dont "introduce" them as such put the "mexican" in a corner away from the "local" and let them meet in there own time... imo putting them in each others face could cause them to strike at each other thinking OMG what the hell is this crazy looking thing
