Hi all,
Finally got around to posting this, and sorry for the crappy potato pictures
For the past few months (well a few months ago then I couldn't be bothered to finish it), I have been working on a DIY enclosure for Red, my bredli x prossie. I used Lizzie's old tank for the top (which had a cracked bottom) and built the wooden box at the bottom. Me and my dad made the background that we siliconed to the back, we thought it would suit Red. It is still WIP, as I need branches and to fix a hole in the top of the enclosure.
Now to the questions:
I have had him in a tiny enclosure that he has grown out of, and I have had him on a ceramic globe for night and day heating with natural light but now, I think he should have a basking light. What basking light would be good for a bredli x, and how hot etc etc. And should I use a ceramic bulb for night-time heating?
Also, I am planning on making a hood for the lights, would this be necessary (I have a mesh top)? If so are the vents (there are three, two on one side then one (WIP) at the top) sufficient for breathing?
Without further adue,

Regards,
Bredli

By the way, Red is only in there to check it out, not living there full-time yet
