Anybody have anything interesting?

I don't have a picture but we keep one pair in a 4x2x2 steel trough and the other little guys are in a 5x2x2.5 melamine built box. With a single baby in a 40 gallon.

I don't have a pic of my enclosure right now since i haven't got it set up yet but i have pretty much the same as you. A big water trough. Only difference is the one i just got is only 3 1/2 feet long instead of 4 because i got a great deal on it. I would have prefered 4' but this one was $75 cheaper than the cheapest 4 footer available in my area. Anyway, i'm rambling. YOu can bet i'll have some pics up of the enclosure and my new Uro when i get it.

My male egyptian Dog on the top in a vision and my two female egyptians on the bottom. Both enclosures are 4X2X2.

How do you find the Vision cage? Is it difficult to heat properly with such limited lighting options?

Dog's been in the vision for about a month. The basking temp stays at a constant 105-110 degrees. Cool side at about 75-80 degrees. He seems to like it. The only change I had from his previous cage is that now his hide spot is not directly underneath the basking spot.

This is a shot of one of my cages. It's not very creative in materials - just a glass tank and screen top.

I'm currently building a wooden enclosure (should be able to finish next week - yay! finally!!!) out of an open front box thing I found at goodwill. I'll post pics of that when I have the chance.

Very nice cage! I like the character you gave it.

Good job!

You can run, but you can't hide... unless you're a uro
