Sonny is overdue for a new cage, and with the fact that I have a ton on my plate financially I decided to build him an enclosure, and save almost have the money Id spend on a similar sized AP. The whole idea behind the build is cheap and functional. This won’t be a forever home, but hopefully will last him a couple of years. Also I would like to note that I have NEVER built anything, so it’s by no means going to be a masterpiece, and on top of that the only tools I have are a jigsaw and a cheap drill. I’m also not planning on posting a full thread on it because like I said I’ve never done anything like this and I’m not confident it’s worth going into extreme detail over. I will post picture updates on Sonny’s thread though. The general idea is 6x3x2, with a shelf, radiant heat panel, and sliding glass doors. I’ve got pond pro arriving tomorrow to start sealing the wood. All in all it should cost me about $400-$450, but I have enough wood left over to make a 4x2x1 also.
Ive already run into some minor flaws(measurement errors, some on my part some on Lowe’s) but nothing that can’t be sanded or simply fixed. Hopefully sonny will be all set up in two weeks, that’s the goal anyway.
here he is with a fresh shed, though it’s the usual crap lighting so you can’t tell. He almost had a complete shed too.
