    Homemade Dumeril's Enclosure
    Hello! I got an old cabinet, I took the back off (It was the hard cardboard type stuff that's on the back of a lot of furniture), replaced that with Plywood, put a UVB in there along with a UTH, and newspaper, etc. I really wish making it was as easy as I made it sound... lol I also put little locks (temporary locks, until I can find something better) in. Six of them to be exact. She's been in her new enclosure for close to 3 three hours and I can hear her exploring and stuff! Really relieved to see that she's liking it. :) I still need to put a water bowl in there. The one I have for her isn't big enough. she keeps trying to soak, but she doesn't understand how big she is vs how small the bowl is! lol The locks do not look sturdy at all but I'd bet all my money that the door will come off before the locks give away!

    I think because you're registered and signed in. I'd try a different file hosting company.

    Ah, nice little quick fix though I probably wouldn't use it long at all. That's neat though.

    I'd be worried about splinters.

    She has bedding, and the wood is finished. She's on newspaper, but I'll be switching to corrugated cardboard soon.
