    Those are a couple of good lookin bp's! The new hat pic is cute :) That enclosure is sweet! It looks like you took some time decorating it. What is she climbing up? Did you put that in there for just that purpose?

    What kind of enclosure do you have? Where did you get it? I want to know all the detaills :P

    led: Yep it took me a while to do it up. I had to wait 2 days for the substrate to be fully dried up(the coconut fiber had to be soaked for it to expand). But the enclosure took 2 weeks to complete! But the end result was worth the wait and effort! :) The rope thing is actually to hang the analog hygrometer. I cant find digital here :( She seems to have other ideas about it.

    Royal: Yeah the hide is cheap (flower pot) but effective!

    padiente: The enclosure is custom made. The details are:-
    - Made of wood covered with malamine sheet
    - The floor surface is made of tiles for maximum moisture resistant. Also a drainage whole that leads to an under tank sink (for easy cleaning).
    - Vent holes for air circulation.
    - Wheels - This is very usefull as i can move the cage around whenever necessary

    You can find a similar cage at Customcage.com. It was cheaper for to me to get one built as the shipment and currency rate was an overkill.

    www.customcage.com isn't a working website.

    That cage looks just purely awesome. Great job.
    You can come over and build on for me anytime you want.

    I'm planning to build the same type of enclosure myself from PVC plastic ... I'll chemically weld the pieces together.
    I'd love to visit Malaysia someday, have you seen any blood pythons in the wild? :shock:

    PVC cage!? Now we're talking. I wanted something plastic as well but i dont know how thats done and i dont think anyone here knows to as well. Be great if you can share your idea blink.

    The only snakes ive seen in malaysia are the cobras and the retics. Tho ive seen more cobras. But alot of friends claims to have seen the blood on the wild. They're not actually in decline (very easy to breed i was told), but the government chooses to protect them as they been exploited like crazy! Our country seems to be the natural habitat for the agressive ones i.e. retic, burmese, and bloods (The movie Anaconda 2 claims that theres anaconda at borneo, what rubbish!).

    For what it's worth (probably not much to you, but maybe to Blink or someone), I saw a "plastic welding" package at WalMart here last week, so I imagine if you could get the proper sheets of plastic at a home improvement store or something, it's probably pretty do-able.

    I'll actually go to walmart today, check out for myself today! :P

    I want to chemically weld the sides together and add a bit of silicon III.
    I found out about chemically welding from
    http://www.sunshinedragons.com/cages.htm

    They do so with their cages, and might I say the look awesome.

    Huh, plastic welding... never heard of that. I really want to make my own cages, especially for my growing boa, so thanks for the idea!
