    Doobie got new digs!
    Doobie is so spoiled it's not even funny! She is livin' large in her new digs :D

    I still have some exterior moulding to prime & paint, but with the inside pretty much complete - she moved in last night.

    The whole enclosure...

    Thanks! She seems to like it ;)

    I was worried that heating it would be a major issue, but so far so good! The 3 levels make for an awesome temp gradient :D

    Thanks Mike!

    It is huge! I'm 5'7" and it almost comes up to my shoulder.

    The price tag on this enclosure keeps getting bigger each day ;)
    I picked up the enclosure at the show for $80. Then the guy was nice enough to deliver it for $20 , since it wouldn't fit in my Explorer. I think they had an Iggy in it. It was a bit on the icky side so I gutted it. I ended up re-doing the walls and laying down tile. Finally added the shelves and lighting late last night, and now now it's golden.

    Thanks Raul! No worries... the UV Bulbs are there ;)

    I have one Zoo-Med Reptisun 10.0 UVB (tube type bulb) mounted to the top. I don't think it showed up in any of the pics. And tonight I installed an Exo-Terra Solar Glo Mercury Vapor Bulb. The Infared bulb is for her penthouse basking spot and to keep the ambient temp up at night along with the CHE that is on the opposite side.

    It works out pretty good with the 3 levels.

    Lower level stays between 75-77 degrees.
    Middle level stays between 84-86 degrees.
    Upper level stays between 95-98 degrees.
    Both her basking spots are at 102-106 degrees.
