    ANOTHER Night Box Thread...

    Makes sense but I only use low VOC paint and I’m highly sensitive to smells and have had no issues. I would probably paint it during the spring months and let it air out for weeks before I closed it up. Plus I would never purchase paint for this project, just use leftover exterior house paint...

    ANOTHER Night Box Thread...

    Question!! Is there a particular reason why you have not painted the inside of the night box? I’m asking because everyone thought I was crazy when I used exterior house paint and also painted the INSIDE of our chicken coop, but it find that makes cleanup much easier and it creates a barrier to...

    That makes me sad. I often wish that Sulcatas could be kept in more than groups of one because I would love to have more than just our rotten guy! Love them!!

    Self Soaking

    I personally would toss the cuttlebone but I am a bit OCD like that. Otherwise give it a good wash, really good rinse (repeated) and let it bake in the sun for a day. After all, as Will said, they eat their own poop ...lol ❤️

    While I agree that it can be sketchy especially if it’s never been done before (by me personally) if you happen to want to soak up the knowledge of those that of been there and put it in the place you won’t have a lot of the issues that you spoke of.

    With all due respect I would build nothing like anything you have just stated. (Honesty I didn’t read your entire post, I kind of zoned out after reading about how you put a dog basket on a heat register.) You might definitely want to look at Toms night box because there is a way that you can do...

    Yeah- I will be 50 next year and I am utterly exhausted...lol we were actually foster parents for the boys and they came back into care because they got abused again. They were going up for adoption and given the fact that they both have autism we were concerned they wouldn’t get the best home...

    It’s good to “see” everyone! I had two strokes at the beginning of the year and after the second one it was discovered that I have stage four lung cancer. My body was trying to tell me something and I had actually been to the doctors for about a year complaining of the inability to breathe...

    EVEN MORE THEN BEFORE N2TORTS NEEDS US

    It’s been quite a while since I’ve been away from the forum and I’m so sad to hear about Jeff! He’s just the sweetest guy... Hopefully things will start looking up for him and Cindy. I just took for granted that all the ol’ “regulars” would be around...!

    My thought with an 8 x 12 was that it would be less space to heat but since were going to include the heated night box inside, at 12 x 12 will probably be what we’re going with!
