    New Snake Enclosure!

    Here's the new snake enclosure we've been constructing for a week or 2 now. Much easier to manage and looks prettier than all-glass enclosures, IMO. I'm sure Moses will like it a lot better (his old enclosure was only 2 feet long, he's 3 foot). The snakes will probably like heating pads better than lamps as well.


    The enclosures are 3 foot by 1 foot (not sure about the width but i think it's right), with heating pads between 2 pieces of tile each on the left sides; thin layer of bedding over the top of the tile. I actually have thermostats now (yay!), Kellogg's warm side is 84-87 F and Moses' is 89-92 F.

    The lighting is terrible, I'll try to get a better pic tomorrow. But what do you guys think? I can answer any questions about the enclosure if you have any

    The only picture I have is the one in the thread, but it was night so it's kind of horrible.

    Awesome enclosures. I wish I were handy enough to construct my own enclosures and all that jazz..

    Also, I have the same Toothless plush! I worked briefly at Dreamworks and was given one.

    It's glass, and we did use sealant in the inside to resist any mold.

    The bookcase itself is Oak, the shelf in the middle and the door frame is just plywood.
