    Let's see your amazing BP enclosures!
    I'm trying to think of ideas for my BP's tank, and I want to make it more than just a basic cage. Post some pictures of your guys most extravagent BP enclosures!

    Mine isn't quite as extravagant as I want it to be yet, I'm adding more things in when I next go down to the reptile store. However, I did a quick Google search and found two very nice enclosures.

    I don't know if it counts as extravagant but my BPs new home since last week. I imagine I'll tweak things in time. He seems to like it and the pro products RHP. His activity levels have increased since moving him from a 24x24 to a 48x24x16

    Sigh you children.... All the plants are fake and cost me about $6 at local thrift shops. They are your friend for fake plants. My 4ft lady would crush real ones... Buy,chop, decorate! Be careful to melt a dot of candle wax on any exposed wires from fake plants!!!! Stump and hides, petsmart.

    40g exo t breeder. Made my own top for it due to humidity issues.

    Tada!

    I love the look of those fancy display tanks but the must be a real pain to keep clean and sanitary. I like to keep things simple and clean so all my ball pythons are in dark tubs in a rack with just substrate and a water bowl.

    Forgot to mention moss is also real. From the woods. I think i read a sticky here on sanitizing a while back. I also use a uvb light for my lady. While not all do this i will save the debate by saying yes i have noticed better colors, out more ofter(explores basks and such) a constant regular feeding pattern and so on. I believe it made a difference in mine anyways

    While i can edit: its not too bad to keep clean. Home made bioactive recipe from joshfrogs.com

    That stuff made the plants in my firebelly toad viv grow like mad

    Not too bad. Pick up large feces, mix soil. Shes a wanderer so the substrate compacted fairly nice. But yes. The weekly plant wash and glass wipe while shes in her feeding tub

    Nothing fancy, just started this one up so there's a lot missing I would like to add but yeah I went crazy on the sphagnum moss as its really hard to keep humidity in this tanks, specially exo terra's as they have those front ventilation holes. Substrate is also mixed Eco Earth and Cypress Mulch for more humidity again.
