I love looking at pics of enclosures for future ideas. Please post a couple pics of your enclosure.

This is Tank and his hide.

This is Tank's current enclosure.

This is Lana's enclosure. We only had 2 days to put something together for her. Only temporary until we move to Tennessee.

We put a metal fence around it for added security.

This is Dale's outside enclosure.

And his indoor enclosure although it's slightly different now. I've turned his hide away from the light and he doesn't have that many plants in there anymore.

Missy and Candy, I love your enclosures. I don't have good pics of mine, but I'll get some soon. Here's Daisy's new cave. Its filled with wet coco chips inside and she digs down into it. I'm going to experiment with an underground chamber soon.

My Hermann's and Iberian have pretty much identical enclosures, so I'll just show one set-up...

Water dish and "cave"

Slightly better shot of the cave, prior to the plants getting taller.

Same, but from a different perspective, prior to a lot of the plants growing up and a coating of algae in the water dish.

The flat rocks I feed them on help keep their beaks and claws from becoming over-grown.

Tried to block off a 3' X 3' area to grow 'em some munchies, but, in both enclosures, they managed to climb over and the munchies got munched!

Terrible pic quality, all done via my cell-phone.

Here's Pio outside.
This is his hide. There 's lots of long firber moss in there for him to dig in.

Here's my indoor one. About 8 sq ft for a 4 inch Russian whose 2 years old. Looking forward to doubling his (actually we're 95% he is a she but we're not changing the name or anything) enclosure in the next year. You can see most of it in the photo with the tort in for reference. I need to take out the bucket and put back in some other plants and his log since he doesn't use it except to scratch at the sides and annoy us! hehe

Wow what an inspiration. What is the clover looking plant in the first pic? I could spend all day looking at your enclosure pics.

Kristina, I am really loving those logs with the moss on them. Where do you live? I am coming to rob them now. :D

Thank you Luck10...what is your name? I am in the process of building him a big vivarium now...hoping it will get finished before the cold weather comes, because he has gotten so big since the summer.
