Well, here's what it should look like when its done! lol




And today I went to B+Q to buy the wood and get it cut to size.





The top vivs are 2m long 60cm wide and 75cm high
The bottom one is 1m long 60cm wide and 50cm with a cupboard either side for storing bits and bobs in.
The white rectangle on the side represents the size of me just to give some perspective

Total cost so far £196

Will post pictures of the build and keep a track of all costs as I go along.

What do you think?

P.S. You sure you still want to help, BE?

He does actually, but not in a 3' viv which is how big the spare one is.

I told you Magnetic- you need a Ruthven's!

My two 08 BCCs are currently sharing the middle viv (with a divider to keep them seperate). When they reach about 5' they will get a viv each. The bottom one is being kept spare until I decide what to get, possibly a pair of hoggies but my wife wants another female BCC first. Not quite sure how I'll manage to find space to keep 3 BCCs but I'm not complaining, its a nice problem to have!

Looks fantastic.

What you going to be keeping in there?

Nice mate.

OK! The snakes are now in. They still need water dishes and a couple of hides but they will be in before I go to bed, just giving them a clean first.

So here's the whole thing.


This is Hercules


and this is Athena

Just finished attaching the heat guards. Now waiting to see if temps are still OK then the snakes can move in. Will post pics later if all goes well

I've just ordered two guards from Jungleboy on RFUK for £8 each. Will post pictures when they arrive.

I wasnt sure. I havent had to do any soldering for years! My plan was to get many lenghts of wire and bend them into the cage shape and solder it all together.
Blackecho Posted - 27/10/2008 : 20:16:20
Yeah, I've heard that you can replace a soldering iron with a 15W bulb
