V. Beccarii Housing

en Jun 01, 2003 07:09 PM

Hello,
I have a few questions that I hope someone can help answer regarding Black Tree Monitors and housing. I recently built an enclosure measuring 5' tall by 4' wide by 3' deep, fully furnished with proper heating, ability to thermoregulate, humidity...etc. But looking at it today it seemed a little small for an adult pair of these monitors. I finished this cage in anticipation of buying the pair I've had my eyes on within the next month or so, but now I have a few questions.
Do you think the current enclosure is a suitable size? and if not what size should I build the next one?

One last quick question, I don't have much substrate in the cage as of now, but looking through the archives I'm suprised to see that quite a few people remarked at the fact that their beccarii dug alot. What depth should the substrate be?

Thanks a lot
Ian
