RE: outdoor/indoor enclosures
I also had another idea. Get two rubbermaids and put a heat bulb in one and a small fan in the other. This way if it is too hot, they could cool off or if it is too cold they could warm up. not sure how well this would work though?

RE: outdoor/indoor enclosures
And would plexiglass be fine to use as a roof because I can't let too much rain get in because the area of the yard I'm using gets pretty mucky at times.

James, Plexiglass may also keep the humidity in or high, if there is a lot of rain. If you are talking about inside enclosures Rubbermaid totes should work fine. More than likely will only have to deal with heat issues during the Winter. Summers they would be outside Right?

RE: outdoor/indoor enclosures
I don't know if I would use plexiglass as a roof. It would really heat up the enclosure really high almost like magnification. I think you would be better off using something else. Someone correct me if I am wrong please.
