They're looking good and smooth. I see the vita-shell on there, we're doing that as well until the ants return in the summer. The ants here LOVE vita-shell, lol.

Looking good. I think you need slightly taller sideson the outdoor enclosure and the corner gaps worry me too.

I wanna see updates when the greens start growing.

those sides are only temporary to keep the cat out, that and a spare piece of screen layed over the surfice. This is the 1st time they have been on the suface and only for pics.... they took off and it was hard to get good pics because they never slowed down!

Eventually, it will have 12" plexi-glass walls and an 8" devider in the middle so they will share the same atmosphere, and have twin, ramp and 2nd level walk around over thier hide. It'd gonna look KOOL!

What such cuties!! I am amazed at the size difference between Zenna and her sister Eros, Zenna is just a little fatty :D They are both just beautiful little torts and I love the enclosure.

He put on weight quick when he 1st got here, but then he stopped. I suspect bulling in the tank, that is the reason for the new "Twin Enclosure" idea. this will be my new INDOOR enclosure I'm growing grass in. I'm also building a new cage for a second outdoor enclosure to match this one. I really need to seperate these two, They don't like each other very much!

I always knew the issues with raising pairs and had originally planned on only one. I had hopes, but have no problems raising 2 in differant habitats. I just happen to have the yard space and configuration to fit 1 Adult Sulcata and 2 Adult Leopards in seperate areas.
