Great Pics. Lovely diamonds!
what is your aviary made of? Is it metal? How do you stop it getting too hot?

Great pics Faye. Look forward to seeing the setup in some daylight on Monday and not in pitch black dark like the last time we were down.

Thanks for the compliments!
Aviary has raised shade cloth over metal half on top and it is in the cool end of the yard and gets cool breezes, gets morning sun on their basking platforms for eight hours daily.........Garth is home most of the time....really hot days...Garth hoses them down. We have a couple of older wooden aviaries......with thick vines (jasmin) all over the top....when they are revamped the diamonds will be rehoused there as they are a lot cooler. When it comes to feeding, two people are a must....have to have a lot of rats on standby...when one finishes it gets another, so on and so on and I know it sounds funny but they all seem to end up finnishing their rats at all the same time!! We have over ten diamonds in this double aviary. What amazes me about these diamonds is that I am always standing in front of the aviary looking at them. As we carry the box of gassed rats to the aviary, within seconds the ones in the boxes start emerging! We can only assume that their sense of smell is far more acute than we imagine!!
Yeah huggy, Garth is looking forward to showing you and Neil around on Monday!

Those pictures are awesome, I especially like the first one, 4 animals in shot all chowing down... Excellent!!

They all look very happy and healthy, you are obviously taking excellent care of them (read as: spoiling the hell out of them ), well done!!

lovely pictures and lovely snakes

do you ever worry about them attacking each other?
also how long have you had them all or have they been slowly added over time? because i think if theyve been "bought up" alltogether it wouldnt be as much of a worry as going out and buying another snake and putting in there i guess
