Thanks! Tracking down the source would be impossible. My plan was to water heavily for a couple weeks and make sure he has food when he is in there. This his not his "all the time enclosure" we just put him in there on nice hot days. There is no granular fertilizer that I can see. On a second...
Hello,
I recently built an outdoor enclosure and put sod(grass) in it. Not thinking my wife brought up that the fertilizer or chemicals they used when growing the grass may cause and issue. The out door enclosure is not his full time home. Will this be an issue if he eats the grass? Can keep...
Thank you, it's 8 feet by 21 inches by 2 feet tall. He loves it! Thanks for the plant list, its safe for him to eat all of those I assume? I have a Uv light in there and a grow light for plants as well.
I haven't purchased the trays yet. I found some on Amazon that will work perfect. This is my enclosure, it is 8' by 20" deep and 20" high.

Hello,
I am in progress of finishing up our new enclosure. I am ordering the glass sliders tomorrow.

I will be tiling the bottom portion where the substrate is. My concern is sealing the wood for the rest of the enclosure so there are no mold/moisture issues.

1. What types of wood are safe?
2. Any...
Hello,
This is our first post here, although we have used this forum endlessly for information for our 1.5 Leopard who's name is Denso. He is currently in a exo-terra terrarium that has a foot print of 36 by 18. We have considered a table and aquarium, at this point we are leading towards...
He's in a Exo Terra terrarium, 36 x 18 footprint. We just got him, so we will be varying the diet. What kind of thermostat do I get, I have a night time lower wattage night time heat bulb already, just haven't used it as I didnt think it was necessary.
Hey Everyone,
