    I will post final pics and I have worked with wood before but on a much smaller or larger scale my grandmother owned a ranch so I have built barns and kennels and fences and that side of the larger scale and then on the smaller bird houses and sand boxes just never ventured into habitats so I am excited to see the final product as well the only thing I would change so far is that I haven't worked with plexiglass before so I will be rebuilding my doors and finding a better way to frame them screwing trough the plexiglass caused a couple of small cracks in the corners it barely came above the line of trim and is internal so there is no exposed edge but I know once the girls get older they will have enough weight on them to make that crack spread and fully crack out so I will be re building the doors (recommendations welcome on best framing methods there)

    Also we decided to turn this first box into a split habitat this morning so each side will be 2x2x2 (our rottie had a hand in that decision when she came barreling through the house playing with her sister and didn't see my second sheet of plexiglass already scored sitting in the door way and so one side of the sheet was toast, since we are not buying any more building supplies until after Christmas the girls will have this one box split then if we get into breeding we will have a display for babies lol )

    That and with the introduction of myself to radiant heat panels I want to build a solid roof with radiant heat panels but my kids might kill me in my sleep if I spend all the Christmas budget on building snake cages lol (I would to if I didn't tell myself no) (pets behave better than children)

    With that all said any and all recommendations are welcome since I will be building more and I also would like to know if any of you know what dimensions are best for a full grown red tail boas male
