    On a different note, if I was to spray paint PVC would putting it in the enclosure be an issue?

    Btw, another day another piss. https://ball-pythons.net/forums/cach...981364ccbc.jpg

    I made this for Gene and he uses it all the time. I want to shorten it up and put it in his t10, I just hate the color. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...e8b78760f8.jpg
    And one more from today.

    OH, I don't know to be honest. I know guys will scorch the pvc with propane torches outside so the fumes don't kill you and then hit it with a spray bottle of water to give it texture as the water droplets will put divets in the stuff. You could probably order black pvc. Think D4katz did one up in black pvc, looked pretty nice. I'm going to just build a huge one for outside the cage so I can drag it outside in the summer time too and let the boas sit on it in the shade while I sit next to them in a chair and read a book or do yard work close to them.

    I'm jealous! I haven't taken the snakes outside besides the patio (3rd floor apartment). We have nosey neighbors, and honestly don't want to stir the pot.

    I had a nice house that would have been perfect, but my ex wife and long term boyfriend have it now.

    Haha he is screwed.

    How did the new enclosures come out?

    Lol yeah, I'll keep my snakes on the downlow too. I will just take them in the backyard on the deck where my neighbors cant really see. I personally would rather not have my neighbors seeing 7' snakes lol.

    And what enclosures? You mean the T8s I just got?

    If so, everything is together except I need to order another T8 for Luna probably in 2 months as I guess the lead time on even T8s now is 8 weeks last I heard. I think I'm going to get a Herpstat 6 next month as I need 1 more for the 7th cage. Atm I have 2 Redlines-a 2 and 1 and 2 normal-2 and 1. So I would need to order another 1 or just say screw it and order a 6 and then use the redline 1 for the 7th cage and have the redline 2 as a back up if the 6 ever needs to go to the shop. And then sell the normal 2 and 1 and I think JM wants the normal 2 but we'll see how it all plays out as my plans rarely ever follow what I set out haha. Anyways, here's the newest pic of all the cages set up with everyone in them. On the left from top to bottom is Caesar, Vicky, Rosey and on the right from top to bottom is Gina, Rango and Dottie. Luna is still upstairs in quarantine as I'm making sure she doesn't get mites back and doesn't spread them to anyone else. So far its been over a month and so far so good. Gonna give it until her new cage gets here with treatments, so figure they will for sure be dead after about 3-4 months of treatment lol.

    Oh and don't mind the steam in Caesar's cage lol. I just changed his substrate last night.

    Where do you get your Herpstat? I got mine from herptastic but I'd never purchase from them again.

    I'd go directly through spyder robotics. Same price as the other suppliers and they're the ones that make the dang things haha. I'm still tempted to haggle with Sauzo on a used price for his (soon to be) spare herpstat 2 but the perfectionist artist in me wants a redline model so it matches the redline 2 that I already have hahah
