I wanted to post these pics of an enclosure my husband and I made for my new redfoot. We took an old TV cabinet/chest and revamped it. I think it came out great! I just need to add a ramp and second level now. We put linoleum down on the bottom to protect the wood, wired in lights and the hide is on the right side behind the closed door, there's a little cubby for her. Plexiglass in the front and a couple ventilation holes. I hope she likes it!?

That's great. Hubby did a nice job. I would like to suggest you ditch the reptile bowl waterer. Those really aren't made for a hard shelled creature that doesn't bend in the middle. They sometimes get overbalanced trying to climb in and out and end up falling over on their back. A large clay plant saucer works best for water, then recess it down into the substrate.

Looks really cool, be careful with the water bowl because he might flip over, clay dishes are one of the best
