Some changes to his enclosure from when we first got Spike:

As you can see, it was pretty plain with his initial setup - two hides, food dish, basking stone (under the heat lamp), and a few decorative pieces.

After a few months, we mixed it up - an additional heat lamp in the corner, two hides, one hiding area (the leaf in the corner), water dish, food slate, and some decorative rocks. He really enjoys being under the leaf or on top of the basking stone.

Today, we changed up his enclosure to provide variety - we removed the sticks, arranged the rocks into a small rock garden, moved the terra cotta pot to make a small hill to climb/explore, included a larger food plate, moved the original food plate to become another basking area, and cut the cool hide (with the green lid) shorter. He explored the enclosure all day and seemed to enjoy it!

Looking really good. Does he ever get a hole in one?
