Felipe and Fernando are now five years old and looking like they needed more space, plus my daughter wanted the wooden planter they were living in, so I decided to build a custom house. The accommodation is 2.5m by .7m and the overall structure is 2.9m by .8m ( the extra space at the end to...

The humidity and heat got to the camera, I might try again, if I do I'll re post the address etc

I think they were about 12 to 18 months before the marbling started and then just on the bigger one (they are both the same age) now they are both marbling nicely

Mine was around £30 from Argos, and works well, much better than the reptile one's and I took the three year replacement warranty (only a few £'s) so if it does stop working I'll get a brand new one anyway, I then just inserted a length of garden hose into the top and route it into the enclosure...

I'm not sure how often I'll need to leave it on in the new house, as the heat lamp over the pool evaporates a lot of water, I had it on a timer before starting off being on for a couple of hours first thing and then half an hour every couple of hours through the day, I sometimes left it on...

Three years on, Felipe and Fernando are both girls and have just moved into their third enclosure, this one is much bigger (more pictures in the enclosure section of the forum) Here are the girls enjoying a bath in their new house

Update on Felipe and Fernado (who are both girls by the way), although not outgrown their former enclosure we felt we could offer them more space and give us more room in the conservatory. This planter was ideal as it was deep enough to hold the heat lamps and build a swimming pool that can get...

Breakfast today

Here they are this morning

The camera can be panned left and right, up and down remotely, I think you can see from the screen grab off my iPad that I have an app to do this, I can also do it via a browser. I then can set guest access to either view live video but with no control or a still only, the setting I have for...

Just taken this picture

I am in the UK, sorry, and we have shorter daylight hours at the moment as well, it's 11pm here and although it's night you can see one asleep, just not so mobile

The light is on between 7am and 5pm UK time, they get fed at about 7.30am, if they smell protein they normally come straight out, they have a bath mid afternoon. They do also come out more when the fogger comes on (15 mins every hour in the morning from 6am and 15 mins every two hours in the...

Glad you got to see them in action, Felipe is the larger one with more marbeling, Fernando the smaller one, they both enjoy the cuttlebone they also chew on an old fossil rock, they do drag the cuttlebone around

They seem to enjoy this at bath time http://instagram.com/p/varDXzx49r/ http://instagram.com/p/vaq6BbR49B/ Sorry it's a link to Instagram but the videos are worth watching

It is a recycled garden pond, a round tub in the hexagonal wood frame, I added the lid to retain heat and humidity, it lives in my conservatory And as for raccoons - not a major issue in the UK but it is cat proof as my cats share the room as well and one regularly sleeps on the lid to enjoy...
