Thanks! So far so good with humidity. I was concerned because there were some big gaps here and there due to the shape of the lumber and fitting them together. I used some plastic wood to fill some gaps, then I tried construction adhesive and finally tried that expanding foam stuff.
I found out that expanding foam stuff requires a sand blaster to remove from your fingers and really expands a lot. A whole lot. It is like THE BLOB that never stops expanding all over your nice cage like sticky concrete balloons. It ended up looking like I sat a 2 yr old inside with a gallon jug of glue and said go for it. Luckily I covered most of it up with fake foliage haha.
I was trying to make something good for them to live in as well as good for a display. So far so good, they are all eating like monitors and digging all over. They’ve got that ‘I’m really excited’ look on their face as they roam around.
Tom
