    Haha thats what I told my wife when she was giving the approval on placement. I said "you need to be sure, because in 5 days when you say it needs to move a foot to the left I am going to hand you the shovel."

    Just added some more weight!!! Got the wood placed in after work...buried the ends of the logs to make sure they hold...also buried the bark pieces so she has a place to start the burrow... (the bulbs in there aren't the ones I am using...I was just testing out my fixture) the real bulbs will go in once the doors are complete

    Well the inserts for the doors will finally arrive tomorrow...they messed up the first ones so I had to wait another week to get the correct ones...I have my live plants in there as well as some grass growing (I know they probably won't last long, but though it would be worth a shot). I am hooking up my wireless temp/humidity monitor tonight. Once the door panels are in I will put the correct bulbs in and do a few days of temp monitoring. My girl should be in her new home by this weekend.

    Excellent call! I learned all the things you don't want to do the hard way, but I was able to recover and fix all the issues.

    Haha ya, my wife and I are taking bets to see how long all the green lasts, I say maybe 3 days, she is saying about a week...either way it looks nice for the time being and I figured even if she kills it all off the plants will help kick the bio-activity in gear because the bugs will feed on them.
