New pics of Peaches!

Postby Teacup » Sat Feb 15, 2014 9:08 am

Peaches seems to really like his new enclosure. :)

He is still a bit cage shy and will run off if he sees us moving around but we are making some progress. He basks a fair amount during the day, and he likes to keep an eye on me.

Cute little face!

What size is the tank? It looks perfect, and he seems to be enjoying it.

Nice setup! It looks like something Exo Terra would display on their website.

It's the Exoterra 'large/wide', which is 36x18x18. It might actually end up being too small depending on how big Peaches gets but it should be good for a few years at least. :)

Thanks! That's very kind. :) This is our second attempt at a natural set up (our other tanks are much more functional). We first modified our turtle tank then Peaches', and the others are due to be redone over the next year or so.

The nice think about your enclosure is that you can stack stuff and get double the floor space. Place a flat log over a hide on one side with a basket in the back with holes to climb in and out of. Sometimes my enclosures look kind of cluttered visually, but they love it when I decorate and give them new things to crawl through and investigate.

Great idea, thanks! I do need to add some new stuff for him to explore. :)
