Hello There, I plan on getting a mangrove, blue tailed, peach throat, or yellow monitor. I have done my research. Please don’t try to talk me out of it as I have made up my mind. I was going over caging necessities, when I had a great idea that might not only save me time and money, but look nicer to. In my basement I have a “back room” In this room I set up shelves (attached to the wall) The shelves are extremely sturdy (made by a friend who is a carpenter and myself) meant to carry a lot of weight. I think there must be 500-700 pounds worth of stuff on them already. They are constructed of 2x4s and ply wood. I am wondering if I could house a monitor on one of the two shelves. The dimensions are as follows.

1. Ten feet wide
2. 4 ½ feet deep
3. 4 feet high

I am wondering if I put plywood walls on the sides, back, and front with a sliding glass door if this would work for one of the monitors I mentioned above.

Cheers,

Itherrien
