Hi all,
After building my Bluey an outdoor sunning tub, I decided to attempt something a little more ambitious!
Over the next 12 months I am planning on adding to my collection. I am definitely getting a Spotted Python early next year, but I am also considering getting a Bearded Dragon or Leaf Tail Gecko (or both!) - I'm currently in the middle of my research (any suggestions on species I should consider?). So in the meantime, I want to build an enclosure that will hold one or more of these species.
Here is a TV unit I picked up for free of gumtree:
I have been looking at this thing and thinking about it for a while now and am still now 100% sure what I want to do. Do any of you guys have any suggestions on how to set out my new enclosure? I'm open to anything - no matter how imaginative they are. I am even up for re-sizing any of the three sections.
The current dimensions (in inches) are:
top section - 38.5x20x7
middle section - 38.5x20x24
bottom section - 38.5x20x13.5
One option I thought of was to take the doors of the bottom and re-home my bluey there, then cut part of the middle floor away and have a branch coming up from the bottom into the middle section. and house a bearded dragon in there with the bluey (so the dragon would be able to access both the bottom and middle sections while the bluey would stay in the bottom). I thought this might be the way to go until I researched and found out blueys and dragons shouldn't be housed together.... so back to the drawing board.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions and tips you could give me!
