Looks great. Bet they are in love with it. But, truth now. If that is you in the pic, you didn't carry that in by yourself, though I think you want us to believe you did LOL :p:D. Great job you did.:)

I sure hope you haven't let WR see this.
He would be understandably jealous.

Every Weekend was spent making and staining all the parts. Yesterday was the Easiest/Hardest part! No detail work, but lots of heavy, messy work (still cleaning up the mess!):rolleyes:

I still have to put on the weather stipping, but the curent ambiant heat is 80* and the overall Humidity is 81*.... it's looking goos so far!;)

and my little ones are more active than I have ever seen them... I used the soil from thier old enclosure spread evenly over the whole enclosure (hope the grass pushes thru!) and some of the moss for thier Hides so it smells like their old place but the veiw and space is differant, so they just have to check EVERY nook and crannie!

I LOVE IT! (It's like the Nature Cannel "Live"):D
