Wow- this is impressive. I have been exploring the PVC options at home depot and this is a great example of how it could go thank you for posting pics. how I have a 3yo herman and a 10yo Russian in separate enclosures that I need to expand. I'm in Chicago and a condo dweller so outdoors is a no...

Yeah, this guy is just going through a ton of change and there will be more to come. Thanks for the ratios I'll keep that in mind while trying to get him in better eating habits. I think I was so focused on getting him off romaine stat since it's all water that I'm not considering how set in...
