Do a search,
But right now we are moving the discussion toward caging in this thread.
I have several photos posted. Rock (member here) is in the process of finalizing setup plans.

I was just asking for some pictures of how creative everyone was. When setting up there enclosures. That's all. Yes I did a search before posting. I didn't find what I was looking for. I hate it when someone says do a search. If some doesn't want to help or contribute. Then please don't post do a search plan and simple. Just move on its simple.

And those displays of yours are horrible. I tell you what. I will send you my address so you can mail the whole ugly collection to me. Then you will not have to look at them ever again. . Really your setup and collection looks great. Those are the type of pictures I was looking for thanks.
No worries mate!
I wanted to post last night before bed and figured there'd be a few responses today. I looked and there were none so I figured I'd throw the search suggestion out and link you up with a current discussion to at least give the post an acknowledgement. Rock is in the same boat your are and you guys may be able to bounce ideas off each other too.
Typed words come off with no tone or voice inflections of friendliness on the internet.
I got into a jam with my wife the other day over a text message reply. Once I explained the intended meaning of my text we were laughing.
Misunderstanding is all this was. If I thought you were really that upset I would have never posted anything further on the topic.
Anytime you need a hand give a shout. I know other carpet folks are watching and assume they will eventually jump in here too. If not I have plenty more pictures.
Keep me/us posted on how things are coming along.

It would be nice and I'm sure helpful if some others chimed in here.
My cages are just one of many options, and even though I linked a carpet cage search from Google, Tigerhawk may want to ask specific questions.
I know there are some good carpet keepers here.
Show off your best displays

Carpet setup
I haven't posted previously because 3 out of 4 of mine are very basic and close to sterile; but for a reason. It seems that when my Coastals reached 3-4 years or the Seven foot mark they got very messy. Besides trashing the place and moving things around, the urates got really bad.
When they were younger there was usually just one pile of urates. Now, they are in 5-7 places spread all over the cage overnight. And think of the worst places that the urates could be and that is where they are.
I just dont don't want to do complete cage tear downs for cleaning. Cleaning urates out of driftwood and plastic leaves and vines are a major pain to me. So I went with a more minimalist approach.
Now on my Jungle girl is just 2.5 years and is not messy at all, so she has more natural stuff in her cage. Plus, she is very active and climbs a lot.
The two things that I believe are of great benefits for Carpets are poles and or shelves, and the skyhides.
They all rarely touched a traditional hide, but they spend time in their Skyhides. They seem to love hunting from them which makes feeding time much more fun for me.

The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

Please excuse the spelling in my posts. Auto-Correct is my worst enema.

Ran out of time, I'll never understand this 10 minute limit for editing.
The white on the lower branch in the third photo is not urate, but rat fur from the first part of her meal. I wasn't about to try to remove that until she is out of feed mode in a few days.
