It's done!

http://www.kodakgallery.com/I.jsp?c=1nww...&y=-lcylka

(when you click on the link, then click "view slideshow"; you don't have to sign in to see the pics!)

You'll have to look through a few pics of the four torties that moved into the space today to see the pics of the enclosure. The other four (the bigger ones) will move in later tomorrow after the little ones have a day to adjust.

What do you think? (Oh I don't have all the lights up yet... was just enough basking to keep these four comfortable today).

Looks good Kelly, they should all be very happy. Looks like a fun setup with lots for them to explore and do. Smile

THanks! Actually the main section is 50/50 sand/Bed-A-Brick, and then the "box" section is just Bed-a-Brick.

RE: It's done!

Good job Kelly - looks like they have lots of room to roam. Is it on wood and then the floor or directly on the concrete? Hard to tell. Are you putting all of your Russians in there?

RE: It's done!

the whole floor is covered with a tarp. part of it has plywood on top (for the eating area) - I'm sure I'll have to replace this plywood as it gets soiled but that's no biggy. Anyways the rest of the tarp is covered with substrate or hay, depending on the area.

Oh and yes, all of the Russians EXCEPT of course Vanya who will be on quarantine for a few months at least.

Of course if the three boys are bullying each other or the little girls, some one may need to be moved... I'm not worried about the big girls, they can hold their own! but the rest, we'll wait and see how they do!

RE: It's done!

That will be nice to have them all in one spot.

RE: It's done!

Yes I think it will! It will cut "daily maintenance" time down a little, instead of having to spot clean, mist (if needed), change water and put everything back into it's proper place (since they LOVE to re-arrange) in three different enclosures, it'll just be all in one spot!
