Built a 4x8 table for for one of my Redfoots today. The Night Box is heated to 84F and the basking spot is about 93F. I know Redfoots don't necessarily need a basking spot but I like to provide one. The Strip light is a 6500k LED. The substrate is Cypress mulch and I lined the wood with a Tarp to protect it. Total cost $120.IMG_20210906_113522175.jpgIMG_20210906_122546765.jpgIMG_20210906_122603992.jpgIMG_20210906_130035764.jpgIMG_20210906_130045874.jpgIMG_20210906_133109690.jpgIMG_20210906_133027116.jpgIMG_20210906_135814016.jpgIMG_20210906_135843605.jpgIMG_20210906_135904818.jpgIMG_20210906_135915735.jpg

The Redfoot I'm housing in this enclosure tends to leave them alone. My other Redfoot eats them down to the dirt though lol.
Haha. Yup I've noticed their taste for different things can vary greatly amongst individuals (or maybe some of them are just more of a "fat-***" ?)

Out of 8 I had roaming around my yard only one was obsessed with my cheese plants. Which are ironically called Monstera "Deliciosa"

Hahaha little guy bit into that leaf like he wanted to prove a point ?.

Pothos are relatively easy to grow and propagate. Doesn't seem to have any bad effects on him either so I see nothing wrong with this ?
Yep super easy to grow. I usually keep about 5-6 of them growing at all times and rotate them because I use them in all my enclosures.

Added a shelf under the light that I can hopefully grow various greens to rotate into and out of the Enclosure. I've started a couple different lettuces.IMG_20210911_154839670.jpgIMG_20210911_154848120.jpg
