I have a 4x8 enclosure built with landscape timbers right now. We are picking up our new boxie from a rescue this weekend. I have a lid built for nights with chicken wire, but I don't want to leave it on during the day.
I'm planning to build an overhang on top to prevent climbing escapes when the lid is off during the day. How far out should the overhang extend? I have 1x6 right now that will give it about 2.5" overhang... is that enough or should I go to a 2x8?
I have shade plants (hosta and boston fern) and hiding spots for more shade, so the overhang would simply be escape prevention.
Thanks!
