New Frilly pad

[Stevo2]

I'm picking back up my 2 x Frillies next week, after being away for 8months!!

This is the new enclosure that I've knocked up for them - The enclosure part is 1.8long, 1.2high and .75 deep.

It's been quite a project! I haven't done any woodwork since I was in school 25+ years ago...... lol.

looks good mate,

how have you done the glass, in process of doing mine, looking at different glass options. sliding with rails, frame less, framed etc etc

[SteveNT]

Looks great bro! Dont forget their vertical logs. They are great climbers!

They used to be pretty standard in front and back yards here before the toads. Good to see they're coming back. Beautiful beasts!
Dogs sometimes kill them but I've never seen a cat go a mature frilly. They can be seriously intimidating!

Their favourite logs will be going in over the weekend - I've had the boy for a couple of years now

I inset the 2 outer panes and the centre is done with tv cabinet hinges (frameless). All glass is 5mm which is probably a bit of overkill for these guys..

Do yours sleep in the Dry Season (winter for Mexicans)? They semi sleep at the tops of big trees here for the Dry then fire up big time for the Wet!

[Stevo2]

Yep, they slow down big time during the Dry. Chopper, my big male, is a NT Frilly - we lived there for a couple of years before moving East across the border

Looks great, can't wait to see it all styled and sporting a few new inhabitants, keep the pics coming

Looks good, it will be an impressive feature in your house. Although you think the 5mm glass is overkill for a couple of lizards, it's certainly not from a human safety perspective. If someone leans/falls on it there is less chance of damage to glass or human. If you have resident or visiting kids it's worth considering laminated glass for anything less than 400mm off the floor.

Nice to see pythons aren't the only ones that get spoilt

Stevo, by any chance did you leave Chopper and a smaller female with a lady called Debbie while you were overseas???

Yep, Chopper and Maggie were extreemly well cared for while I was away I take it you've had the pleasure of meeting them...?

[melluvssnakes]

Sure did. Fell a little bit in love with Chopper. Was nearly as upset as Debbie was to see them go home with you lol

Really hoping that one of her lady frilly's has little Chopper babies one day soon!

[Stevo2]

We're still not sure if he was successful... Hopefully he gave Lady a good servicing.. hehe.. Chopper is such a great, laid back, big Frilly

[melluvssnakes]

And he's just so pretty...

Looks good mate pics when there home and settled.
