need help with new tank ideas

Postby reaperreptiles » Wed Feb 01, 2012 9:31 am

Sorry its been so long guys, PT has been rough and im working more with my beardies now. But I just ordered some 48 x 24 x 18 critter condoz from chriss allen and im trying to figure out how to set up toby's new cage. I am doing mayan temple/jungle for my female dragons, lava/dragons lair for my male dragon. But im at a loss for toby. I was thinking about maybe using the burrowing substrate from zoomed that hardens up like rock but with skink poop i dont know if it would be smart. Im building stuff out of styrofoam and grout for basks/hides/ledges. Just dont know what to do for toby. she's always been more of a top layer skink and only burrows like 40-50% of the time. Im torn on using some kind of substrate or whether I should just go with tile like the beardies will have, she was kept on carpet for half her life and seems to enjoy it so i dunno. i was thinking about doing an australian kinda theme, with the big red rocks and stuff, but im at a loss. obviosly nothing with too high of basks, skinks arent as good at climbing as beardies with the heavy bodies. :doh: total brain fart on ideas for her. any suggestions or pics of your guy's custom cages would rock and help me out soooo much!

Thanks Guys
