My Olive home.
The two poly boxes on the left have heat lamps boxes in each, of different wattages. The black box on the right has damp sphagnum moss in it. Water tub is between the black box and the aviary wall. That's vinyl on the floor for easy washing.
The aviary is under the house just inside the garage doors which are usually left open. This lets in the morning sun or if the weather is miserable cold or forecast wet/windy/stormy, I close the doors up.

i know a guy who lets them free range
its a tidy flat and he locks them in a spare room where the make use of their enclosures,and the room,but they sometimes have been out in the rest of the flat ,
there is no chance of losing a 13 ft olive or two there,
i was talking to him on the phone the othe night when his female olive come up the back of the couch and licked him on the cheek,that was quite cute i thought
