    New Reptile Building Progression Pics!

    I'm all moved into my new building and wanted to share some pics with everyone! The process started last April and I was able to move in last month. It isn't quite finished - there will be a greenhouse attached to the front. Inside the greenhouse will be a sink and space for the bugs. My husband did the work (except the cement and electricity) - with lots of help from our nephew who stayed with us this summer. This was my husband's first adventure into this kind of construction.

    I'll start at the beginning - this is the site after the tractor came in and leveled the area. The stumps have been there for over a decade, so we thought the tractor would have no problem removing them.

    Wrong!

    Here you can see why the tractor didn't work. That root is as thick as the trunk!

    Here's the stump after being removed from the ground.

    Finally, some progress could be made!


    The first wall!



    Here comes the power!


    Mostly done - still needs some painting and trim. And the greenhouse!


    Here's the inside with everyone all moved in!





    I'll add pics of the greenhouse when it's finished.
