My husband got busy and built her enclosure on Sunday. It is 4' by 6' wood enclosure with a wire and wood top that locks. I just have to paint it and then set up the inside. I had him put wood bumper guards around the inside of the entire enclosure to prevent her from climbling and falling on her back. I lined the inside with a tarp and drilled a series of holes in the bottom to prevent flooding. I did put hardware cloth over the bottom as well. We added castors and think it will work well. Is there anything else you guys can think of?

I am going tomorrow to buy hosta and daylillies for the inside and will add some rocks and tree branches. I have looked at several enclosures here on Kingsnake to get some ideas.

Thanks and as always any suggestions are appreciated. I attached a picture of my mali Ichabod. I like sharing my photos
Linda
