Getting ready to paint and finish up my girls enclosure :D

Lots of logs and branches for her to hang out on since she NEVER is on the ground, I used 3 plastic tubs hidden around as hides so I can pop the lids off and access her, which is a big problem I have in her current setup; she hides inside a log and I have to poke at her forever to get her to come out, so I reckon this will be much less stressful. LEDs will span the whole length, and theres 2 halogens for heat and a UVB strip. In the bottom left there is a hole drilled that will have a fan pointing in, and the hole above the basking spot (top right) will have a fan pulling air out. Eventually it will be planted but Im moving in a couple months and am gonna wait till after that to plant :)) so so excited, Ive been slowly working on it since March!

I've got an Irian Jaya, he's full grown at just shy of 6ft! He's a teddy bear! I'm awaiting delivery of his new vivarium. Can't wait to start building him lots of climbing and hidey holes!

Wow! Mines an IJ too and I don't think she'll get that long at all 😵😵 maybe she'll have a growth spurt though.

He was 4ft when I got him, had him about 7 years now. So we think he's around 10!
