I've heard that glass sides are a no no, but no one has really expanded on why.. I tried googling it because I want to know before we build my baby her forever enclosure. So when I was researching, there were different opinions.. some say it's ok and others said no. The reason why not to was because not enough air can get through, but we were gonna have a wood top so we would put wholes in for air to go through.. and other said it is hard to have varying temperatures. We are making it 4x6.5 so we would have the che lamp on one side so the other side wont be so hot..
Is there other reasons why we should get acrylic or something instead? We got 2 show cases that we are going to put together and lower the base of it so there can be deep dirt for plants and so she wont be so close to the lights. And the top we would have a wood frame to hang the lights, but plexi glass or something to cover the lid. Would this be ok with the wholes in the side of the wood frame and glass only on the sides?? I want what is best for my girl. Right now she is in a plastic tub, but she is getting bigger so this summer my hubby was going to build it. I keep getting different opinions from people on Facebook so I was seeing if anyone on here had thoughts and experience with redfoots in glass.
Thanks!!
