Ichabod is about to get an upgrade!! Enclosure Project.

[Jennelos]

This is so long overdue but my little dino is about to get a second floor to his enclosure!

I'm so excited for him to have more room to roam and explore (does that mean he'll stop hovering by the walls to get out? Probably not lol).

My plan is to have the top portion be the "hot" end and the bottom to be the "cool" end. I will have some variance in temps on both in case his temperament is to stick to one level for a while though.

(Also I'll be raising the bottom enclosure off the floor, although he loves to just spy on me)

Does anyone have any experience with a multi level enclosure? If you have any advice I would absolutely appreciate it!

This is his enclosure now, it's 4'×5' so we'll be doubling that space to give him further to roam.

That is a beautiful enclosure! And I will be looking forward to seeing a picture when it is upgraded!

Yes, that's a pretty sweet home....a lot to look at!

Can't wait to see how you integrate the new section!

Hello!
I added a second mezzanine level to my PVC enclosed chamber. The most important thing to remember is that any ramp has to have a 1:2 rise. For instance, if the second level is 12 inches above the first floor, you need a ramp that is at least 24” long. If there is 11 inches between the 2 floors, you need at least a 22 inch long ramp, etc.

Good luck and keep us posted!
