What do you think of the setup. I chose to go with multilevel so I can get more sun upstairs and I can control the humidity better. Ramp is rubber bottom for grip and has a blackroof to absorb heat. Basement has hides and hay and lots of shade. Upstairs has greenouse roof, covered burrow with heated floor. Otger heat provuded by perimeter floor heating and auxiliary heat fan for cold nights. Access through floorhatch and side hatch for cleaning and maintenance. Going to making the barrels into a heat sink system to reduce energy costs but thats next weekends project. Hes free to roam un and out all day and i close him in at night.
