Hi all,

I am about to begin building some custom enclosures for my Rhino's. I was wondering if anyone knew anything about using treated lumber for reptile enclosures. Is it safe? I wouldn't be suprised if it were not.....

Also, what about paint? Is all water based, non-toxic paint the same? Or are some types better than others?

Finally, how does everyone's Rhino's do with plexiglass? Do they scratch it up badly? Do you recommend glass instead?

Thanks very much for everyone's expertise,

wes
