I also use metal shelving- Muscle Racks. They work out great. Hold a lot of weight and sturdy in earthquakes.
Especially when we had all the 200 gallon aquariums.
This is Awesome Yvonne!
My husband will now have a visual of what I am talking about. [emoji8]
I was trying to figure out how to use a tension rod inside to hang from yesterday.
This wooden rod is better yet.
The RHP can be that close to them?
Wow...easier than I thought it would be.
What have...
Thanks Yvonne! That sounds good on doing a box around it.
I have the 18" florescent tube but it's high up and on the outside.
Will be getting it taken care of today.
Sure wasn't expecting this cold snap!
Glad I checked when I did.
Been really busy and it could easily of gotten over looked...
Will be working on correcting that today!
With them inside I hope to not see all the moisture and will feel good about that. Also won't spray down the whole thing like Tom said. Just the babies. [emoji20]
Well...now to figure out how to use this enclosure which I love due to it being plastic!
I have all the vents closed off except where the lights/heating are.
I am going to have my husband drill through the top so I can hang the lights/CHE inside.
Was checking that yesterday.
I put the heat pad...
Yes...these 6 are from Bob Blome. Actually the parents are his son's.
These are Sudanese.
However...the more "zig-zag - zipper" looking 2 may not be?
My husband picked them out due to the irregular scutes. He's not sure if he picked those 2 out of the right bins?
We just love them!
I just found out today with the cold snap we have going on the enclosure is not as warm as I thought!
I'm freaking out...
The cooler end is 89°
But the basking area is only at 94°.
I Have to buy a RHP this month!!
I spray the enclosure and babies each day. The walls are wet and the top drips...
The last pic is when we first got them...just a few weeks old.
The first pics are them now. As you can see their enclosure is very humid. They always have water which they walk through all the time - especially after cleaning it! I also soak them several times a week.
I am following Tom's advise and have 6 babies being raised in a very high humidty and warm enclosure. The walls will actually drip! They get a wide variety of weeds, grasses, cactus, greens, flowers/leaves which are switched up all the time along with a new supplement put out by "Tort Rescue"...
I've went through and read all the posts on sulcatas and enclosures now. I am going to use the smaller of 2 vision cages I have. 2' deep x 2' high x 4 ' long. Right now with them being so small this should be perfect for now?
Then I can put them over to a 6'.
After that they should be able to...
LOL...That is the only season we have them. I wanted the Sudanese but. I'm my hubby wasn't thrilled about getting into sulcatas again. But when he saw how crazy these hatched out he couldn't resist bringing them home. [emoji6][emoji1]
Yes Yvonne...I have raised redfoots in high humidty along with radiated tortoises and it's been awesome.
With these guys however I want to make sure I have a large enough enclosure for them.
A very very heavy rain storm/monsoon came through and within 24 hours the hatching rate just...
The TTPG is GREAT! Missed the first one as I didn't know anything about it back then. And only missed one after that to getting really sick with a flu just hours before leaving for it! [emoji855][emoji40]
Was sooo bummed. [emoji22]
Thanks Tom!! I found several of the articles but not the pictures. I am Thrilled to see the vision cage one! [emoji847] I have one just like that and then I have one that is 6' long for later. Just have to move the beaded lizards into the bigger one which I already had planned to do. I'm...
They are the wildest patterns that he has ever had hatch! An irregular scute here and there...but Nothing like these. One isn't all that wild but I like things in even numbers. [emoji6]
