That's pretty nice for temporary caging. Where in the world did you get lumber straight enough to build that? Or did you straighten each piece when you ripped it?
Only thing I would do differently, assuming the bottom is going to be full of dirt, is to make the bottom platform more of a torsion box type structure. If you added more 2x4's to the bottom platform and then glued/screwed another sheet of ply to the bottom it would make for a much more stable structure, otherwise known as torsion box or stressed skin construction. ----- Currently keeping a small collection of various Gonyosoma. Both G. janseni and G. oxycephala.
