Yeah your probably right, doubt it’s going to get much worse than it is, the levels are all good which is the main thing so we’ll keep on top of them over the coming weeks.Sorry about that... Another month in the old viv won't make things drastically worse, though.
As for the extension space.. Maybe her old viv can be used as an extension ("double-decker"). Both enclosures - her old and boa's should fit on top... Or a double-decker with a greenhouse...
Unfortunately her old viv won’t work for an extension cause of the current state it’s in, it’s done well for the time he’s had it, it’s housed a few of his desert reptiles over the years before I knew him, but due to her humidity it’s finally giving up lol, shame really cause it’s a lovely looking viv, but yeah the wood is definitely on the decline of no return😕I do like your thinking of a double decker situation though! That would definitely work better in their lounge, I would have to ask the viv company about the possibility of both an extension viv(which I think a 6x2 would be best cause it’d be the same size as his boa enclosure)and the snake viv on top, they always say to check cause if the weight was ever too much for the glass, I’d need the written guarantee from the company that we were advised it’d be ok, that way if it wasn’t, they’d be liable if that makes sense, it’s all suggested on their website to cover themselves.
So failing that, if the weight would be considered too much, I was thinking my original idea of a grow tent/greenhouse style extension she could access via a ramp from the bigger viv, I just don’t know if they’ll go for that, but possibly if it meant no rehome🤞🏻Either way, we’ll take our time now setting up the current upgrade, I’ll let them all get their breath back before I’d mention an extension cause I don’t want to overwhelm them too much.
But over this coming year now I’ll start having a brainstorm on how to get an extension on the go, theres not too much time pressure for now anyway as I’m sure she’s going be very happy with the extra space she’ll have for a while, plus tbh think I need time to get my own head round it after all these damn curveballs😂if they refuse to extend I’ll have to think of tentatively approaching the re home situation in the future with them.
Thanks as always for your helpful suggestions alex! Hope you’re doing good😊
