LOOK WHAT i DID TODAY!!!

[nikki0601]

Was hooking up his power sun bulb and made a last min decision and built my Sully a new home!!
Check it out, made it from my old dresser!! Lots of pics, from start to finish, well still not finished, have to put in the decor, water spot and all, but check it out soo far.. I know no one likes to view pics this way but I dont know any other way to do it

Looks great to me. Now some pictures with your little guy in there would be wonderful to see.

 

[cemmons12]

Looks good. Get you a photo bucket account and then you can post pics the other way. There is a thread on here that tells you how to do it.

 

[SulcataSquirt]

That's a very creative idea! And you could still use the actual dresser part too if you wanted! Haha. Can't wait to see more pics!

 

[Toristurtles]

Yes, very nice

 

[reneereichert]

What a good idea..turned out nice, and btw I don't mind viewing the pics like this, just takes a sec to open them...thanks for sharing.

 

[tortoise-kid]

Never seen anyone use a dresser for a tortoise table before very innovative and it looks very fantastic.

 

[nikki0601]

Got a couple more pics, still not finished but my poor baby was tired and ready for a warm soak and then his bed so will finish up and take more pics tomorrow, gotta put his rocks and stuff in, Sully loves it, he has twice the space and a clover patch!

 

[MatrixDJ]

Nicely done!!! Looks like coco coir. What is the plant in the middle?

 

[nikki0601]

Its a clover patch I dug up from the yard.. And yea it coir, I love that stuff its so clean and soft

 

[nikki0601]

Finished it up, heres some more pics!! Look how handsome my Sully is, he is growing!!

 

[Utah Lynn]

That looks really good.

 

[laramie]

Looks wonderful! I love those log borders that you have

I'm sorry to mention this now, when you're all finished, but...

Did you think about putting down some plastic like a shower curtain liner before you added the substrate? Its a good idea, for smooth little sulcata babies, to have moist substrate for them.

Your new habitat is very eye pleasing and looks quite nice for the baby too. Lots of room for him to roam. I like it.

I know how to post pics the better way now, yay!!!

I did use something to line the table with, i cut off a piece of an old camping tent, the bottom piece, it worked pretty good

Thanks Yvonne, was wondering if u or any one else would have an idea what to do with the wiring to my lights? As u can see in the pics the wires are just hanging there.. Thinking maybe I could pin em to the wall or even run em up the chain the lights are hanging from?

 

[ripper7777777]

Looks great and I agree the Log boarder is really cool.

I'd run the cords up the chain using wire ties and than run an extension cord up the rear wall using coax cable nail in clips from the hardware store.

 

[FADE2BLACK_1973]

Those was great pics and an awesome job on the tort table

 

[nikki0601]

So I made Sully a new hide, see in the pic.. worked hard on it, lol, made it from a fake halloween pumpkin broken in half and then painted it, lol, that was the hard part... Anyway, Sully wouldnt go near it, I stayed up late trying to watch him and kept moving him closer but he wouldnt stay, he went to the other side and hid under the plants, so I put his old hide back in, just a plastic bin with a door cut in, he went right in and went to sleep, lol.. just wanted to share that

 

[Yvonne G]

If there's enough cord, you can zip tie them up to where the lights hang.

 

[nikki0601]

Thats a good idea, both ideas for the lights, I have some smaller chain now, gonna revamp all the lights
