Well, I was having a little Hummidity issue, (the lose there of). so I added a little moss to the Twin Enclosure. It is also the time of years I trim my Spider Plants of all thier little flyers, so I hade a little "planting party"....

..... here's how it went over....

Eros came out for a little bit....

Stomped around the soft, warm, wet moss....

...was NOT impressed and went back to bed.

Gaia, on the other handwas not at all interested in her beautiful new front yard....

...so she stayed up stairs...

It's been a week now and they are finally used to it but it never corrected my loss of humidty issue. Yesterday I ran a piece of duct tape across the bottom of my window/doors and now it is raining inside! (sorry, no pics of that, the windows fogged up so bad I couldn't even see the temp and humidity display)

That looks cool. Do you have a pic of the whole thing?

I'd love to build something like that for mine but I'm afraid this monster would outgrow it in a year.

If I had just one little one, this table would take care of it for a couple of years!

Wow. You put an insane amount of work into this and it looks amazing. I'm too lazy to do this unless they could stay in there forever. lol

So when they outgrow it do you think you'll sell the table or stock it with something else?

When they out grow it, I'll have to sell it or scrap it! it takes up a VERY large area in the livingroom (in a lg cubby of the livingroom) and I promised the wife that it would only be in the house a year or so... looks like maybe 18 month:D

HA!

With WalkingRock and the 2 kids, I've run out of yard space (or, at least, I'll be out of yard space when they all hit adult size)

...however, when the next generation of SA Leopards come around, I might just be willing to take another project like this one then! :rolleyes:
