After 20 months of dinking around. I started my first hognose cage.



The top part of the cage is rockwork, only because its here and nice. later I hope to change that to a diorama of their natural habitat. It has 3 to 4inches of substrate, from their natural habitat. And two Drawers, 15 by 22 inches and 7 inches deep. They will have acess to the drawers and the top or can be confined to the drawers. One drawer will be the nesting cage(hopefully) Heck maybe both. I do plan on doing mostly four footers, but this three footer was ready to modify and will work for testing. overall size is, 36 inches long, 24 inches deep and 30 inches high.
As mentioned, I will include and heating/cooling unit, to control temps when needed. It will be a slow process or not. Depending on my field and work load. At least I started today.
